    Copying formulas EXCEPT into cells with formulas

    Hello. I have a formula in B1 and then a bunch of rows below. Some of those rows already have a formula in them. How can I copy the formula into just the rows without formulas? THis could be with vba code or without. I was thinking of creating a named range of all the non-formula cells and then I could copy into that but I'm not sure if that would work with non-adjacent cells. I'd like to learn how to do this with vba and regular excel if possible.

    Re: Copying formulas EXCEPT into cells with formulas

    Maybe this approach:

    • Copy cell B1

    • Select the target range below B1....B2:B100
    • F5 (shortcut for Home.Find&Select.Go to)
    ...Click: Special Cells
    ...Check: Constants...Click: OK
    • CTRL+V (to paste the formula in those cells

    • Select the target range below B1 (again)....B2:B100
    • F5
    ...Click: Special Cells
    ...Check: Blanks...Click: OK
    • CTRL+V (to paste the formula in those cells)
    Done


    Is that something you can work with?

    When I check constants it tells me no cells were found.

    Ah, I think because they are blanks, so I'll just use blanks instead of constants.
