hi, i need help i am a college student, i am creating a spreadsheet for
my portfolio

i would like to generate ID numbers for students in a spreadsheet i am
doing.

so what i want to do is take the first 3 letter of a students name then
add 00 ,and then it should , generate numbers from 1-90 , than i could
use this as an id number.

e.g

*Dav*id

DAV0056

"dav" in the first part is from the name, the two zero are just put in
and then i want numbers from 1-90 to be inputed.

i have 90 students names that i need to create Unique ID numbers. so
please can you tell me the formula/function on how i can do this.
