I'm trying to find a non-vba solution to this problem and I've searched and searched online but I think I might not know the correct terms to search effectively.
I want to populate every row of column A with the correct name in column B. so A1&A2 are Frank, A3&A4 would be Leslie and A5 would be Joe.
Is there a formula that could look-up starting in the row your in going up until it gets a value?
[TABLE="class: grid, width: 250"]
<tbody>[TR]
[TD]Row #[/TD]
[TD]Column A[/TD]
[TD]Column B[/TD]
