Can you have a formula that if a cell is blank it will copy a value from another cell

i.e. if C:4 has no date copy A:4 to A:100
 

Excel Facts

Select all contiguous cells
Pressing Ctrl+* (asterisk) will select the "current region" - all contiguous cells in all directions.
sorry im not very good at explaining things

I have a number in A:4 which I want copied to another cell i.e. A:100 if C:4 is blank or preferably If C:4 has a date i.e. 04/10/06

In cell A100:

=if(isblank(C4),A4,"'))

great im starting to understand it but what i realy need is if it is not blank does that make sence?

Sorry mate, not entirely sure what you're after.

If you change the "" in the formula I wrote to C4 it will mean:

if cell C4 is blank, copy the value in A4 into cell A100, otherwise (i.e. cell C4 is NOT blank) copy C4's value into cell A100
