Hello,

I have an excel file and want to make all values in the column the same. Does anyone know a trick to do this.

For example: I have :

B1, B2, B3 value is: "sales:merchandise"  , and B4, B5, B6, .....B10000 value is: "sale"

How do I make the whole column to: "sales:merchandise" ?

I try to highlight and paste, and it only paste 1 cell at a time.

Try:

Enter "sales:merchandise" in the first cell then select it and all the cells beneath it you want filled, then press Ctrl + D to fill down.

If yours excel file has a lot of rows, don't forget that ctrl+end gets to the bottom

uk666, you the man. Ctrl + D  did a job. I have a file with more than 50k rows and this method save me ton of time. Thank you
