Hi all,

 

I have I have something like this below on excel. How do I pull the number "10100-000-00" from column "B" and move it over to "A" and then have it repeat until it hits a new number, which then repeats by itself?

this works but there is another issue, I have something thats call "Account" and then I also have something that's call "Legal Number:"

 

so this is what I wrote in on the formula below but it did not do anything for the "Legal Number" part. Please help

 

IIF([F1] = 'Account' and 'Legal Number:' , [F2],[Row-1:F1])

Hi @Ahasan13 

 

You need to use OR

IIF([F1] = 'Account'  OR [F1]= 'Legal Number:' , [F2],[Row-1:F1])

Hi @Ahasan13 

 

Please find the expected output for both Account and Legal Number

 

IIF([F1] = 'Account' OR [F1]= 'Legal Number' , [F2],[Row-1:F1])
