Hi All,

Is there a quick way to populate a range of number from one cell, e.g.,
230-235 in cell A1 to their individual cell:
230 (in A1) 231 (in B1) 232 (in C1) 233 (in D1) 234 (in E1) 235
(in F1)?

My worksheet has too many of these 'sequence numbers' and can't use the
"FILL" function.

Thank you for the great help.
Regards,

Enter the starting number in A1 then place the following formula in B1:
=A1+1

Copy the formula across row one to the last column

Put 230 in cell A1. Grab the fill handle (lower right corner of cell) and drag to right
holding Ctrl key. Don't let go of the Ctrl key until you've released the mouse.

B1:
=IF((LEFT($A1,FIND("-",$A1)-1)+COLUMNS($A:A)-1)
--MID($A1,FIND("-",$A1)+1,255),"",LEFT($A1,FIND(
"-",$A1)-1)+COLUMNS($A:A)-1)

Fill right far enough to account for the greatest possible range.

You can then either
Hide column A
or
Select the area with the above formulas
Edit/Copy
Edit/Paste Special/Values
Then Delete column A
