   Astradyne Blog/Tips and Tricks - Filling Alternate Cells

Hi,

In this section I'll be including more tips and tricks, along with some advice and stories from the world of PCs.

 

Tina asked: “Your tips are very useful. Can I use Autofill to set up an A/B split in my excel subscriber database?  Have over 30,000 rows of subscriber data.  Want to Autofill a "1" in every other row in a specific column. Much appreciated.  The column is not filled at the moment.”

Sean’s answer: Put a 1 in the first cell.  Highlight the 1 and the blank cell below.  Now drag the fill handle as far as you’d like down (or double-click the fill handle if there’s data in the column to the left).  You’ll get 1 2 3 4, separated by blank rows.  However, click the AutoFill options SmartTag, and choose Copy Cells.

Easy!
