Default formula to copy data to empty cell

Using Excel 2003. Creating a client list, I want to copy home address to
mailing address if mailing address is blank. For example, C2 is home address,
L2 is mailing address. Thanks in advance.

Just use a helper col, say col M
Put in M2: =IF(L2="",C2,L2)
Copy M2 down as far as required. Then copy col M, overwrite col L with a
paste special as values. Clean up by clearing col M
