Hi

Use this in A1 and copy down:

=C1&CELL("row";A1)

If the result always should depend on the value in C1, you need an absolute
reference:

=C$1&CELL("row";A1)

Hopes this helps.

I should have added that if you use this fromula

=$C$1&ROW(A1)

then it doesn't have to go in A1, you can put it anywhere and drag down and
you will get your number suquence.

Whatever you decide, you may want to keep leading 0's:

=$c$1&text(row(),"000000")

It'll may make sorting much easier.
