Will an excell worksheet automatically insert from 1 to 2 to 3 & so on in
each next cell? How is this done. If A-1 has 1 in it, I want B-! to have 2, C-1 to have 3,etc etc. Help! -- Ralphy |

One way:
Enter 1 in A1, 2 in B1, select A1:B1, and drag the fill handle (lower right corner of B1) to the right as far as required. Another; Enter 1 in A1, and =A1+1 in B1. Copy B1 as far to the right as required. In article , Muddled wrote: Will an excell worksheet automatically insert from 1 to 2 to 3 & so on in each next cell? How is this done.

Enter 1 in A1
Right-click and drag across. Release mouse button and "Fill Series" OR...................... Enter =COLUMN() in A1 and drag across. Neither of these are automatic but close.

Hey Gord,
You have given me a few answers now. Heres another ??. I Make my quote numbers with the initials of the person quoting. I would like to make a page like the ascending number one you just told me how to do. It would have something like the following for a starting number--- DG5/07:23---. Then I want excel to make an ascednding list that only increases the 23 to 24 & so on. DG -- "Gord Dibben" wrote: Enter 1 in A1 Right-click and drag across.

Enter DG5/07:23 in A1
Left-click on the fill handle and drag across or down and only the 23 will increment. Gord On Sat, 19 May 2007 21:08:03 -0700, Muddled wrote: Hey Gord, You have given me a few answers now.
