    Help ! Formula needed

    Hi there !

    Help please with the following:

    If I have one entry in Column A, Row 1 (apple for example) and then in Column B, Rows 1 -10 I have entries, I need a formula that will automatically fill in Apple into Column A depending on how many entries there are in column B. So Apple will appear 10 times.

    Hope that makes sense & somebody can help!

    Thanks

    Sally

    You're probably going to get tarred and feathered for using a non-specific thread title. I suggest you change it to something more specific, like maybe:

    Repeat value depending on number of entries in another range

    Now, let's get down to business!

    If cell A1 = Apple...

    Enter this formula in A2 and copy down to a number of cells that will match the maximum number of cells in column B that will contain data.

    =IF(B2="","",A$1)
