In A2, =ROW-1 works until one filters rows. Also in A2,
=SUBTOTAL(3,$B$2:$B2) does work with filters but doesn't work with
hidden rows.

Is there code that will number rows consecutively even if one
_filters_ AND/OR manually _hides_ rows?? I've googled and googled the
archives but nothing comes up for this particular dual requirement.

Thanks. :oD

I have made several assumptions here, but try this formula:

=IF(ROW()=2,1,A1+1)

Is that what you need?

Thx

Oops -
That formula assumes you place it in A2.
For B2 change to: =IF(ROW()=2,1,B1+1)
(I have assumed you have header row in A1 and you don't want row 1 to be #'d
& you want row 2 to be numbered 1.)

Hi, thanks!

I used this code and then tried hiding some rows but the row numbers
jump same as with the all the other codes and don't compensate for the
hidden rows. What am I doing wrong, pls?

I have XL2K on a new Windows 2000 installation and it's the first time
I've had W2K at home. Am finding that it's doing weird things to my
standard files that Win98SE never did, so wondering if there's a
problem with the Windows version number if this code works for you.

Pls advise and thanks. :oD

Hello StargateFan,

Maybe I am not understanding your issue. This is a function formula (not
code).
You cut and pasted this formula into cell B2 and copied it down to all of
the cells in question? If yes, then you will have to post a small
sample/layout of your worksheet. Thx.

Thx

Yes, as per normal.

Yes, did so, just as I might have done with example code I gave of
what didn't work <g. I put in A2 in this case as that is column in
question and I do have a header row, as you correctly assumed <vbg:

Here is the small sample of date/layout copied directly from the
sheet:

# Date Year
01 2005.07.15.Fri 1
02 2005.07.22.Fri 1
03 2005.07.29.Fri 1
04 2005.08.05.Fri 1
05 2005.08.12.Fri 1
06 2005.08.19.Fri 1
07 2005.08.26.Fri 2
08 2005.09.09.Fri 2
09 2005.09.16.Fri 2
10 2005.09.16.Fri 2

In the column marked "#", I have in A2 the following formula, as per
what you kindly provided: =IF(ROW()=2,1,A1+1).

Here's the problem, when I manually hide rows 4 to 6, for example,
this is what happens to the numbering which defeats the purpose of
having it:

01 2005.07.15.Fri
02 2005.07.22.Fri
03 2005.07.29.Fri
07 2005.08.26.Fri
08 2005.09.09.Fri
09 2005.09.16.Fri
10 2005.09.16.Fri

Thank you! Appreciate any help in fixing this and hope there is a
solution. Up till now have only filtered rows and formulas have
worked for that, but not for hiding rows.

Cheers! :oD

Thx
