    Enter Value 2 Cells Above Another Value That Occurs Throughout Column A

    Hello, Excel Pros,

    I'm looking to have Excel enter a value (via macro, VBA, etc.) exactly two cells above a certain value whenever said value occurs in Column A.

    For example, if Computer occurs in A8, A16, A50, I will want ABC123 to appear in A6, A14, A48, respectively.

    Try this...the only problem I can think of is if for some reason it overwrites a "Computer" term with ABC123.
