VBA to copy down text in a column

I have to copy down text in a column, but there is a catch!
I can't just copy down until there is text in cell because that won't work with the very last item in the column. I need to copy Column B until there is a non-blank cell in column A!

After those are done, I can copy down text until the next non-empty cell in column A.

Can anyone help me with the VBA for this!?
I uploaded a sample file - THANK YOU!! :)

Is Sheet1 the result that you want?

Hi, Martin!
I put both the start and the end on sheet 1.
It will originally look like the data in columns A & B
But should end up like the columns to the right.
Thanks so much!

Could also do with 2 simple formulas.

In spare columns, eg K and L enter these formulas:
K2 =IF(A2="",K1,A2)
L2 =IF(B2="",L1,B2)

Copy down as far as required and then copy and paste values into the original range.
