    Fill a column with values from another column until you get to a duplicate value

    Hello,

    I am trying to fill a column with values from another column stopping when I hit the first "Centre" value.

    Essentially in the attached work book, I want to fill Column A from cell A3 down using the values in Column T, but once the first "centre". Cell N3 will vary depending on an inputted diameter.

    I think I have successfully attached a file.

    Are you sure you attached the right file? You talk about Column T but there aren't values in column T. And I'm sorry, but what do you mean by "the first Centre" value?

    Sorry it was column T but I had to delete a bunch of columns and missed that, It is supposed to be Column N.

    When I say first "Centre" I mean, the first "Centre" in Column N.

    If M2 was 50 column A would be:
    0
    0.5
    1
    1.5
    2
    3
    4
    5
    6
    7
    8
    9
    10
    20
    30
    40
    50
    Centre

    if M2 was 30 column A would be:
    0
    0.5
    1
    1.5
    2
    3
    4
    5
    6
    7
    8
    9
    10
    20
    30
    Centre

    Well, you could put this in A3 and copy it down and it would work based on the data you've provided:

    =IF(M$2<M3,"Centre",M3)

    However, it assumes that:
    a. The numbers listed will always in in ascending order
    b. That the number in M2 will always be exactly as a number in the list.

    Are these assumptions correct and does the logic need to include more rules?
