Hey, I have a sheet with a blank row between entries, but many of the entries are the same (Customer/Destination/etc). I would like these entries to autocomplete as if they weren't separated.

eg. Entry1 | Entry2
|
Entry3 | Entry2

Where "Entry2" should autocomplete, ignoring empty cell(s) between.
 

Excel Facts

Formula for Yesterday
Name Manager, New Name. Yesterday =TODAY()-1. OK. Then, use =YESTERDAY in any cell. Tomorrow could be =TODAY()+1.
1) don't use blank rows (it inhibits autocomplete)
2) Put a space character into the empty cell so it isn't really blank.

I figured you did know that, and thought telling you what you already know would verify that these are your options. ;)

You have to change one requirement or the other. Autocomplete doesn't work across truly blank rows.
