Tea? Pah...coffee man, burnt black and lots of it!

This worked great!  I NEVER wooda figgered it out.  Thanks.  FYI,
highlighting the entire worksheet gave me a selection too large error.
I did it by doing 25 columns at a time.  Took a while but b-i-n-g-o...no
blank cells.  AWESOME.

Glenda,

First, make sure the last cell on the sheet is not blank. Get there
quickly with CTRL+down arrow, CTRL+right arrow. Put an entry there. Now
select the whole sheet (use the corner block in the top left or CTRL+A).
From the Edit menu, select Go to, then at the dialogue, hit the
'Special' button and select 'Blanks'. Go and make some tea. It will take
a minute or so to highlight every blank cell.

When it has, type your dummy string or character, then instead of
pressing enter, press CTRL+enter. Time for another cup at his point.
When you come back, every blank cell will now contain your text.
