Hello,
I am currently working with a spreadsheet in which I am trying to consolidate two different sets of data. Specifically, I have two columns of addresses that are sometimes the same and sometimes different (all of the rows correspond). I want to copy the addresses from the first column and paste them to the second column BUT I only want that information to go in the cells that are blank. In other words, I do not want to lose the existing data in the second column. Because I have over 1000 addresses to work with, I cannot afford the time to do this manually. Can someone help me figure out a way to do this? In your explanation, please try to use the most basic excel language possible because I am new to the program. Also, if you use a formula, can you explain each part of it? Thanks!
