hi fellow Geekhackers,
i recently ran into a simple problem with an Excel project, the solution should be incredibly simple but I just can't seem to find anywhere on the 'net. Browsed through all those MS office forums for hours and no help.
simply put, I need to merge the data from two columns in Excel into one column, with lots of cells missing in each column, so i'm combining something like this:
Column A
"empty cell"
Geekhacker Dave
Geekhacker Glenn
"empty cell"
"empty cell"
Column B
Geekhacker Scott
"empty cell"
Geekhacker Nick
Geekhacker Heather
Geekhacker Shannon
and the end result I desire is this:
Geekhacker Scott
Geekhacker Dave
Geekhacker Glenn
Geekhacker Nick
Geekhacker Heather
Geekhacker Shannon
so essentially just filling it the blank cells in column A with the content of column B, or vice versa, and in the case where there are data on the same row in both columns like Geekhacker Glenn and Nick , just move Nick one cell down and keep going with the process.
If anyone could point me in the right direction or just provide some good online help source forum and whatnot I'd appreciate it tremendously.
and yes I have coding experience and know Excel macros!
thanks Geekhackers!
