You have to use VB

Copy this macro into a module. Press Alt + F11,Insert, Module and then paste
the code

Sub Incr()
Dim c
For Each c In Selection
c.Value = c + 1
Next
End Sub

Press Alt+F8 select the macro and choose OPtions and you can assign a short
cut key to run the macro

It would be helpful while tabulating survey data, to be able to increment a

erase the current value and raise it by one.

Does such a method exist?
