Thanks that worked great for me !!! I have the same problem with the
following
pimage_374_000000001.jpg
pimage_375_000000001.jpg
pimage_376_000000001.jpg
pimage_378_000000001.jpg


I tried to alter what you gave me by doing this

="pimage_" & ROWS($A$1:A379) & "_000000001.jpg"

But this doesn't work for me.

Could you please tell me why that doesn't work also??

Thanks

It does not work because Excel is not smart enough to recognize your data
as
a series, But we are smart enough to make a series. Enter this in a cell
and copy down:

="pimage_" & ROWS($A$1:A379) & ".jpg"
