    If Cell is Blank, Insert Other Cell

    Hello,

    What formula can I use if I need to have Excel see if one cell is blank and if it is, to insert text from another cell? In the attached, if a cell from the cell phone column is blank, it should fill in the phone number from the corresponding home phone column.

    Thanks!

    You didn't attach a file, you just attached an image.
    How is the data entered. You can't have a formula and enter data in the same cell (and keep the formula there). I guess what you could do is, say Cell Phone column is C and Home phone is in column E, you could enter in C2:
    =E2
    and copy it as far down as you need.
    Another option is to use another column (say Column F) and in it you could have:
    =IF(C2="",E2,C2)
