When using pivot tables, Excel only fills the first cell in a particular
column for each section or category of data.  Is there a way to get the pivot
table to fill all the data elements to have a completely filled in
spreadsheet?  I would like to format or even possibly complete another pivot
based on the results but I can not do that unless everything is filled in.  
Thanks for your help.

Not and keep it a pivottable.

You could convert the PT to values (or copy|paste special|values to a new sheet)
and then fill the cells on that copy.

See Debra Dalgleish's site for tips to fill those empty cells:

Thank you! The macro on Debra Dalgleish's site was exactly what I needed. I
also needed to copy the pivot table to a new worksheet, then I could select
the left column and run the macro to fill in the missing cells. Such a time
saver!
