I am trying to write a macro that will set the value of the active cell to that of the row above. My output is similar to that below:

ID # Person
Person
Person
Person

ID# Person
Person

What I want to do is copy and paste the ID # as long as there is a "Person" in the adjacent field. My formula right now is:

If Not IsEmpty(ActiveCell.Offset(0,2)) Then
"this is the same as the row above"
Else
"move on to the next block"

How to fill five years of quarters?
Type 1Q-2023 in a cell. Grab the fill handle and drag down or right. After 4Q-2023, Excel will jump to 1Q-2024. Dash can be any character.
Maybe:

Code:
Sub cwhite2300()
If Not IsEmpty(ActiveCell.Offset(, 2)) Then
    ActiveCell.Value = ActiveCell.Offset(-1).Value
Else
    ActiveCell.Offset(1).Select
End If
End Sub
