You could insert this into row 1:

=IF(B1="","",ROW())

assuming your job entries are in col. B, and copy the
formula down as far as needed.

Hi, i'm having a little trouble trying to generate
unique consecutive
numbers in Excel XP. This is what i have to do, say i've
entered all
these details as a job, calling it job 1, then when i
enter some more
jobs i want it to automatically put 2 when i enter the
data in a Form.
is this possible or am i asking the spreadsheet to do
more than its
capable of. I want it similar to in access when it
automatically puts
the next consecutive number after you have entered data.
i no it sounds
conufuzing, but thats the best way i could put it!

any help much apriciated!
thanks
