Hi all,

Really basic excel user here with help needed on something i'm sure you'll be able to do within seconds.

I have a column that has numbers in it generated from a formula. Some of the cells in the column have blanks as a result of returning " " when the the formula didn't match.

I want to create a formula in the column next to it that takes the cells with numbers only and puts them in consequtive cells and ignores the blank ones (basically, if it gets to a cell that is blank keep going until you find the next cell with a number in it and return that one).

Big thanks in advance!
