Default How do I auto fill long col. filling blanks with last filled cell

On a large worksheet, is there a way to fill the blanks in a column with the
last filled cell without using the autofill handle? My worksheet is over 2000
rows and I am hoping to find some way to mass fill the blanks in Excel. Here
is a small example of what I am talking about. Thanks for any tips.

Debra Dalgleish has some techniques at:

Try the manual method. I've found it's quicker than the code!
