How do I copy the data in one cell to an entire column?

Basically, I want to do a Copy Down function, like in Excel. How do I do
this in Access?

There is no similar action in Access. It is not a spreadsheet.
Can you provide some detail on what you are doing and perhaps we can help
woth the now.

I know of only 2 ways. The update query as mentioned by schasteen or by
pressing Ctrl+' while in the field below the desired value. But that will do
only one field at a time.

Note I said "field" not "cell". The only cells associated with Access are
the padded ones that we developers end up in after working in Access for
several years.

Yes, and our only other career path is something like "would you like fries
with that?"
