in sheet 2 i have data that was the autofiltered version of the data in sheet 1. i made some changes on the data because with the blanks removed it was easier. now i want to take that data and copy it back into sheet 1 but sheet 1 must be in auto filter format for me to do that. let me draw some more pictures.

in step one i have sheet 1 (in the real spreadsheet there are about 8000 rows with gaps of about 10 cells between them so it is necessary that i use the auto filter or some other trick to help me)

step two, i filter out the blanks

step three i paste the results on a new sheet and add columns aj and ak together, the result being in al

Picture7-6.png


step four is the step i cannot do, i'm trying to paste the results in column al back onto sheet one so that they are the sum of the two cells to their left

Time for a stupid question, why cant you perform the 'add' on sheet1, without having to copy/filter etc...

the original spreadsheet is 8800 rows and only 1100 of them are filled. the solutions i do on the rows are not simply add, i have to first change them all to absolute value, then i need to copy them three times to three different columns, then i need to divide them by the cell previous. then if they are greater than one i need to label it c and if it is less than one i need to label it "i". if it follows one pattern i need to label it 0, if it follows another pattern i need to label it 1, etc etc etc
