Copy Data in excel 2003
Hi Forum,
In Excel 2003, I have a list of 1300 headers for 13000 records. My headers are like below (Dogs, Cats, Balls...) and are associated to a varied amount of records. I want to replicate the headers to all associaed records (like Dogs A1-A3, Cats to A4-A8, Balls to A9-A12, or into another column). Dogs Spaniel Poodle Hound Cats Black Brown Dark Bright White Balls Black Red Blue Green Hope I've made what I am after, clear. Thanks for your help. John. |

Highlight your data area with the active cell as A1, then press F5
(GoTo), and click on Special, then click Blanks - A2 will now be the active cell. Begin to enter a formula by typing =, then click on the cell above (A1), then do CTRL-Enter and the formula will be propagated to all the blank cells. You could then fix the values. Hope this helps.
