Its actually quite simple. Enter the first two numbers into the columns they
go in...highlight both cells together...click and hold the little square in the bottom corner of what you highlighted and drag it down until you reach Ab1500000. By doing both cells you train the program to follow what you want the format to look like.

Sorry, MN, but that won't work past Ab1065335 as there only 65536 rows in an
excel spreadsheet. color1928, let us know where you want to put the strings and we'll try to help. Henry "MNTrevor" wrote in message ... Its actually quite simple.
