can a cell value to be duplicated to another cell during data entr
 

we need that users will enter same exact values in 2 different colums. the
reson being is that the spreadsheet data is uploaded to DB. later on a
program checks that values in each column are matching in order to permit the
request.
if the user enter "Math1" in one column but "Math 1" in the second column,
the program will deney his request.
i am wondering if there is a way that typing values in one column will allso
fill up same values on a different column?

can a cell value to be duplicated to another cell during data entr
 

Assuming the 1st "Math1" is in cell A2, enter following formula for 2nd
"Math1":
=A2

This will automatically copy the cell contents into 2nd cell

One way:

In the second column use a formula that references the first column. In
your example, if the value "Math1" is entered in cell A2, use the formula

=A2

in the other column
