HI

I have a worksheet and I want to copy the contents of every other row for 400 rows like below with drag and fill. Excel does not understand the algorithm. How can I do that? It's 400 rows!! This goes on for columns B to F too. Pls help.


[A2]=IF(H2<>"",H2,"")
[A3]=IF(H4<>"",H4,"")
[A4]=IF(H6<>"",H6,"")
.
.
.
[A400]=IF(H800<>"",H800,"")

I'm fairly sure U need to use vba. If U want some code please specify exactly what sheet, columns and rows U want transferred as well as exactly where U want them to go. HTH. Dave

Try

=IF(INDEX(H:H,(ROWS(A$1:A1)-1)*2+2)="","",INDEX(H:H,(ROWS(A$1:A1)-1)*2+2))

DON'T change the A$1:A1 reference, it's not related to your data.

What type of data is in column H, if it's text this can be simplified greatly

=T(INDEX(H:H,(ROWS(A$1:A1)-1)*2+2))

Modify your formula like below and drag & fill

[A2]=IF(INDIRECT("H"&(ROW(A2)-1)*2)<>"",INDIRECT("H"&(ROW(A2)-1)*2),"")
