Thanks
 

Excel Facts

What is the fastest way to copy a formula?
If A2:A50000 contain data. Enter a formula in B2. Select B2. Double-click the Fill Handle and Excel will shoot the formula down to B50000.
I'm thinking that nobody here understands what you have or what you want. Could you explain it more clearly and perhaps give some examples to help make it clearer?
Perhaps you could even show us a small example what you have and what you want to end up with?
My signature block below has a link with suggestions for how to do that.

1. What range of cells have you shown?

2. What should actually appear in the cell where you have written "here i want to put the condition to search above range and search the cell which have data in it, all other cells are empty except the one"?

There are 2 columns A and B and there are 4 rows. My range of data is A1:A3, in which all cells are empty except one, similarly 2nd range is B1:B3 in which are cells are empty except one. I just want the formula that find the cell which have data and put in the A4 and B4 cell. I hope it will be cleared now

Yes it is, thanks.
If you have Excel through Office 365, try the A4 formula copied across. In fact, if only 3 cells, that formula could be =A1&A2&A3
If an older version, try the A5 formula (assuming the non-empty cells contain text, like your samples, not numbers)
