Default Autofill Macro


I import reports daily into excel. The reports vary in size from day to
day. I need to autofill blanks under a word in a column until the next
word in that same column and do the same with this next word and the
next until the end of the report. This is very time consuming and would
like to write a macro to do this. But because the number of blank cells
vary, a recorded macro wont work , it needs a specific range. can a
macro be written for my needs?

Default Autofill Macro

Debra Dalgleish has some code to do it:
http://www.contextures.com/xlDataEntry02.html

She also includes some instructions for doing it manually. And I find it much
quicker to do it manually than finding the code and running it!

(well, unless the rest of the procedure is also mechanized.)
