Creating a loop with a small formula

[flunzy]

Hi,

Im trying to get the following thing started but my loop doesn't succeed. I've got 3 columns. I need to place a formula in column C if A is empty.

Example:

A2 contains data so do nothing.
A3 is empty do: C3=B3+B4.
A4 contains data so do nothing.
A5 contains data so do nothing.
A6 contains data so do nothing.
A7 is empty do: C7=B7+B8.

this is what I've got so far:
