    replicate a number of cells

    hi all
    I have some cells in a column which I want to replicate across the spreadsheet: like copy N cells and paste starting from the next available cell in the same column,; I need to do that many times: meaning for example, 10 cells to fill about 13000 cells downward.
    how can I do that quickly?
    also, how can I record a macro in such a way that the cells are variable and not fixed?

    Re: replicate a number of cells

    A little more clarification.

    Let's say cells A1:A10 are filled...what do you want to happen from there?

    Do you want those numbers filled down starting at A11 until x number of times are complete?

    Re: replicate a number of cells

    it helped thanks: is there a possibility to make it more generic? as in instead of column A, any chosen column and being able to choose the times I want to replicate?

    Try this variation. Just select the first cell in the column and then hit the button to enter the number of times to replicate.
