Origin Ver. and Service Release (Select Help-->About Origin): 8.6
Operating System:XP

I am looking for a quick way to set the value of every cell in a column to the same string. Looping is too slow. Any ideas?

P.S. If you are wondering why I would want to do this, it is because I want to label every row with the sheet name so when I copy a row into another workbook, I know which sheet it came from.

Hi,

Please refer to this example to fill string "aa" in Book1 sheet1 Column2:


str$="aa";
csetvalue col:=[Book1]Sheet1!col(b) formula:="str$";

Jacqueline,

Thanks for our quick response. It worked perfectly and is much faster than a loop.
