Greetings,

I have an Excel question. I am creating a test script template for our team
and I an in need of some formula help. Here is what I wish to do:

Let's say I have a column A in my test script. I wish to label this column
with my test script #
TC1
TC2
TC3...(and so on)

However, the problem is I have section breaks in my test script that divides
the document into sections: eg..

<LOGIN SECTION
TC1
TC2
TC3
<LOGOUT SECTION
TC4
TC5
TC6

Now the problem is that if I want to add a new test case to the "Login
section" above, I need to manually increase all the TC#s by one. This is a
VERY tedious task if we have over 100 test cases in different sections.

What's I'd like ideally is a formula that will do this
1
="TC-"&<In column A:A, look at cell above where I am and if NOT an empty
cell, then add 1

Is this possible somehow? This way my team can add testcases dynamically
and we won't have to keep manually incrementing/updating the script TC#s
every time we add new testcases.

Derek
