    'Kits' &their 'components' in 1 column - need to populate kit numbers against components..

    Hi
    The attached spreadsheets shows three kits (KIT001, 002 & 003 in column A) with different amounts of components listed below them.
    I'm trying to think of a way to update column B with the KIT number for the 'component' rows. So cells B3-B5 populated with KIT0001 and so on...
    Any ideas?
    Many thanks in advance!
    Tom

    Formula for B2 then fill down.

    =IF(LEFT(A2,3)="KIT","",IF(LEFT(A1,3)="KIT",A1,B1))
