I am trying to get excel to do decending numbers from 50 to 1 in a column and
no matter what I try it still will not do it. What am I doing wrong?

Hi

one way, type 50 in the first cell, underneath it type 49, then select both
cells, now go to the fill handle on the 49 and drag down.

Cheers

Put 50 in the first cell, put 49 in the second, select both cells and grab
the fillhandle and fill down or put 50 in the first cell, right click and
fill down and when you release the mouse select series and put -1 in step
value box
