Default Draging down cells


Hi all,

I'm trying to drag cells down, but that doesn't work.
I need to fill A1 till A100 with info from J1, J4, J7, J10 etc.
How can I get this done in a fast way?

thanks in advance,

I did find a solution;
noticed that when you just type 1, 4, 7, 10,... it can be dragged perfectly
so I typed:
ABCD1, ABCD4, ABCD7, ABCD10 and dragged it down.
Find all: ABCD and replace by =J

But is there any other way?

Hello

yes there is.

If you start in row 1 enter
Code:
=INDEX($J$1:$J$500,ROW()*3-2)
and pull down as needed.
Adapt the J range to your needs

Good thing I even understand how it works so I can adjust it later for other documents

not astonished, but it is helpful

I know that excel's possiblities are limitless, just don't have the skills myself yet for even basic things like I just asked.

nevertheless, it really is a good article thanks
