One more interview question

If I have the data where some columns have multiple values
in a given row of data returned from the database. The
stored procedure returns data as it is that is blanks
values and non blank values.

However, I need to suppress the blank values not by showing
0 values but by shifting the cells up. Is there a way
using a formula to shift the blank cell one row up based on
a selection critieria?

In the example below, I want to get rid of the blank values
under Exposure column without replacing with 0.
example:

Company Margin Exposure
AB 500 3

10
7

8

ABC 200 4
2
5

10

Thanks
Anita
