Default How can I automatically decrement a column in hexadecimal numbers

Excel recognizines certain patterns with the fill handle. You have to tell
ti what pattern. To decrement, just create the first secquencial #'s in 2 or
3 adjacent cells. Highlight those cells together, and drag with the fill
handle.

I 'm sorry. I don't know of a way to increment hex numbers.

First, is it possible to decrement numbers like you can increment them with
the fill handle?

Second, is it possible to increment or decrement hexadecimal numbers?

My problem is inputing data down a column that starts at D3 and ends in 9E.
I would like to be able to do this quick and simple.

TIA,
