    substitute/replace until

    Hi everyone.

    This is how my Column A looks like:

    A1: abc
    A2: 0
    A3: 0
    A4: 0
    A5: xyz
    A6: 0
    A7: 0
    A8: dfg
    A9: 0

    I would like to have a formula, preferably in column B, that replaces 0s so that the final result is as follows:

    A1: abc
    A2: abc
    A3: abc
    A4: abc
    A5: xyz
    A6: xyz
    A7: xyz
    A8: dfg
    A9: dfg

    Any help much appreciated.

    Maybe you can put the formula in your topic.

    Ten other members can find it with the search button.

    I work with an dutch version, and should translate it.

    Glad I could help. Thanks for the reply.

    If the question is solved, will you mark your question as solved?

    If you have (other) questions, on this item, just ask.

    @ JanRaven

    Based on your last post it seems that you are satisfied with the solution(s) you've received but you haven't marked your thread as SOLVED. I'll do that for you now but please keep in mind for your future threads that Rule #9 requires you to do that yourself. If your problem has not been solved you can use Thread Tools (located above your first post) and choose "Mark this thread as unsolved".
    Thanks.

    Also, as a new member of the forum, you may not be aware that you can thank those who have helped you by clicking the small star icon located in the lower left corner of the post in which the help was given. By doing so you can add to the reputation(s) of those who helped.
