    Merge blank cell with cell above

    Dear all,
    I have data in range A1:C5 like this..

    A |B |C
    1| Children |Information |News
    2|________|__________|Filler
    3| News |_________ |Filler
    4| News |News |News
    5|________|Movie |Movie

    Then.. I have to merge blank cell with cell above them.
    So..
    Cell A2 merge with Cell A1
    Cell A5 merge with cell A4
    Cell B3 and B2 merge with Cell B1

    Can I do this automatically, using VBA code?
    Because The data could be vary. And I have large data.

    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks.

    Regards,
    Mut

    This is very close to what you want.

    Option Explicit

    Sub MergeCells()
    Dim LRow As Long
    Dim MyRng As Range
    Dim c As Range
    Dim MergRng As Range

    Range("A1").Activate
    LRow = ActiveCell.CurrentRegion.Rows.Count
    Set MyRng = Range("A1:B" & LRow)

    For Each c In MyRng
    If c.Value = "" Then
    Set MergRng = Range(c, c.Offset(-1, 0))
    With MergRng.Cells
    .HorizontalAlignment = xlCenter
    .VerticalAlignment = xlTop
    .WrapText = False
    .Orientation = 0
    .AddIndent = False
    .ShrinkToFit = False
    .MergeCells = True
    End With
    End If
    Next c
    End Sub

    I left in the merge cell format options so you can tweak as needed.

    Fill Blank Cells

    Thanks a lot..Mike
    It worked properly.. =)

    Then.. I have another case.
    What Should I do If I have to fill blank cells?.. Based on cell above them
    So.. It could be..

    A| B| C|
    1|Children |Information |News
    2|Children |Information |Filler
    3|News |Information |Filler
    4|News |News |News
    5|News |Movie |Movie

    Thanks..

    Almost the same:
    Option Explicit

    Sub CopyCells()
    Dim LRow As Long
    Dim MyRng As Range
    Dim c As Range

    Range("A1").Activate
    LRow = ActiveCell.CurrentRegion.Rows.Count
    Set MyRng = Range("A1:B" & LRow)

    For Each c In MyRng
    If c.Value = "" Then
    c.Value = c.Offset(-1, 0).Value
    End If
    Next c
    End Sub
