Default Reference Numbers

Hi

I have copied this formula down and it does not create a unique number. How
ectly does this work?

Then use this formula:

=INT((NOW()-39000)*10^7) and format as an integer.

When the formula calculates, just copy the cell and paste/special/value
where the reference number is needed.
