In your first cell EH001 and drag down, to be honest if you take your
Caps lock off and give us more information we could help you more.

I think copy will not work. Instead of copy you have to drag it for the
remaining cells by using mouse, Otherwise select the EH001 cell and extend
the selection upto which cell you want it to fill the continuous series then
select EDITFILLSERIESTYPEAUTOFILL. Then give ok.

If this post helps, Click Yes!

Teethless mama has already given you a way to do this, but perhaps you are
not familiar enough with Excel to implement it. Try this. Put EH001 in a
cell... select that cell... see the small black square in the lower right
corner of the the (selected) cell?... click on it with the left mouse button
and, while the mouse button is still depressed, drag it down several rows,
then release the mouse button. See... you have the series of values you
asked for. You can click drag the small black square down as far as you
like.

Easiest way is what Teethless Mama and Rick has mentioned. If you are looking
for a formula; try the below

="eh" & TEXT(ROW(A1),"000")

If this post helps click Yes
