Duplicating Cell to another cell if it contains data
I have to "duplicate" a section of my spreadsheet to another section. I want
to data to appear in the destination cell(s) only if the source cells actually contain data. Example: First Section Row 1 Date Dept Arrvl Row 2 10/9/09 KTEB KMDW Row 3 10/10/09 KMDW KPBI Row 4 10/8/02 KPBI KTEB Row 5 Row 6 Second Section Row 10 Row 11 Row 12 Row 13 Row 14 Row 15 Row 16 So I need a formula to insert into Row 10 - 16 that will duplicate the data in the correlating cells only if the source contains data in the cell. in this example Rows 15 & 16 would appear empty since rows 5 & 6 are. I tried using just "=" and if the date is not in the source, the destination appears as "1/0/00" THANKS IN ADVANCE - I really appreciate any help with this - Jennifer |

In your second section, you want:
=if(a1="","",a1) Copy this to the other cells in the section. Regards, Fred. "JB Bates" wrote in message ... I have to "duplicate" a section of my spreadsheet to another section.
