Hello,
So I need to figure out how to get excel to take a column of numbers and create a new column of number that repeats every number 3 times. Attached is an example of what I mean. Thank you in advance for you help.
Thanks,
Kelly Peterson

Try this simple macro
Sub Triple() For N = 1 To Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Row For M = 1 To 3 Cells(Rows.Count, 2).End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0) = Cells(N, 1) Next M Next N Cells(1, 2).Delete Shift:=xlUp End Sub

Put this formula in B1:
=INDEX(A:A,INT((ROWS(A$1:A1)-1)/3)+1)
then copy down to B12 (or further if you have more data in column A).
Hope this helps.

This works great but how do I adapt it because in my actual workbook my data starts on row 5 instead of row 1.Originally Posted by Pete_UK
Put this in B5, then:
=INDEX(A:A,INT((ROWS(A$1:A1)-1)/3)+5)
and copy down.
Hope this helps.

That worked perfectly thank you so much for your help!

my data is Heading wise and i want repeat headings up to down form, this formula =INDEX(A:A,INT((ROWS(A$1:A1)-1)/3)+1) is giving me result well but my one requirement is not full fill so plz advise me if any solution.
Unfortunately your post does not comply with Rule 2 of our Forum RULES. Do not post a question in the thread of another member -- start your own thread.

for pete's sake, instead of A:A, use A5:A100 (or however far data stretch in column A)...
do not worry about changing the 'ROWS(A$1:A1)' portion of the formula.
I tried that it breaks it. Then all it does is copy line for line it doesn't repeat.for pete's sake
do not worry about changing the 'ROWS(A$1:A1)' portion of the formula.
sorry, @kellyp, i should have been more specific. i tweaked pete_uk's formula thus:
=INDEX($A$5:$A$100,INT((ROWS(A$1:A1)-1)/3)+1)
and it worked for me when i tested it - because it had the '$'.
glad that @pete_uk showed a better way in his own formula.
good learning for me...
