OMG What a time saver. I had almost a million rows and found your podcast on copying formulas down a worksheet. Thanks for the tip on line. It saved me a lot of time and effort.
THANK YOU!
thanks
Awesome tip. I wish I new this years ago. Usually I use the copy and shift.command.down function and it goes ALL the way down to the last row. Using this formula, it eliminates me checking the copying stop where the data ended.
thanks.
