insert value every nth row in a cell on that row
I know how to highlight every nth row in a sheet, I also need to place a name in a cell on the highlighted row. For instance, I would like to place "Sally" in column R for every 100th row. Please help with this.
Thanks

Hi BuddyGlenn,
You can use the mod function and wrap it in If function, below example might be helpful where every 5th row I'm adding the name Sally
=IF(MOD($A2,5)=0,"Sally","")Regards, Faraz Shaikh | MCT, MIE, MOS Master, Excel Expert

ExcelExciting Thank you for your help Faraz! I am trying to add "Sally" to column S (19) for every 200th row in my spreadsheet. I am able to highlight every row using conditional formatting with this formula:
=MOD(ROW(),200)=0
and the above works highlighting the rows
I was trying to incorporate adding "Sally" in column 19 for each row hightlighted.
I know
=IF(MOD($A2,19)=0,"Sally","") will put in correct column, I need it to be every 200th column. I cannot seem to get the correct syntax for this.
