Hello,
I have a list in a certain column that contains blanks and I would like to consolidate that list to not include the blanks in another column. I cant simply remove the blanks by using f5 because the list must update itself if changes are made to the original list. The values in the cells are all numbers. Is there any function that will copy a cell if it contains a value and search down for the next cell with a value to copy if blank? Any help on this would be great!

Thanks

Yes auto filter command do the trick but it seems your sheet is linked with other sheet .... can you be more specific by giving some small example
