Hi
in A1 enter
=IF(B1<"",1,"")

in A2 enter
=IF(B2<"",MAX($A$1:OFFSET(A2,-1,0))+1,"")
and copy this formula down for as many rows as required. Now everytime
someone enters data in column B column A shows a ID value

Is it possible to have row A numbered from 1 to 100, and if one of
the
numbers is removed the count will automatically change?

i.e.
1
2
3
4
etc.

Now 2 gets deleted, how can i get excel to change 3 to 2 and so on
for
the rest of the numbers.

hope this makes sense at all :?
