    Question Automatically copy text from one column to another.

    I have to create a record which requires typing same NAME and D.O.Birth in 3 other columns.

    Is there any function I can you so that the text I enter in COLUMN C automatically copies into COLUMN P & COLUMN AE ?
    (I have no experience in using VBA)

    format the whole sheet as you prefer it to be since the destination and the source are on the same sheet.
