When competing hypotheses are otherwise equal, adopt the hypothesis that
introduces the fewest assumptions while still sufficiently answering the
question.

Hi,

Help Excel out a bit by entering Jan and feb in the next cell then select
both cells and drag the fill handle.

Hi,

If I type Jan into a cell and drag across using the small black box, it does
not increment the month and the option from the smart tag just gives me the
option to copy with or without formulas. Although, this method does work
with numbers.

What do I need to do to drag and increase 1 month (or letter A B C etc) at a
time.

Thanks
