Default Excel 2007 - Autocomplete Alpha List

See other replies for creating custom lists.

Note lists are case-sensitive

you must create two lists

one with upper case A,B,C

one with lower case a,b,c

In previous versions of Excel, if I added A,B,C,D,E to the first few rows of
a column then dragged the AutoFill handle downwards, Excel would have
recognised a pattern and suggested the remaining values for me.

In 2007, if recognises the values but suggestions simply start from A again,
so I'd get A,B,C,D,E,F,A,B,C etc. Not what I want.

Can someone please suggest what I'm doing wrong - as this used to be a great
feature which saved me hours of time.

Thanks
