Generate series according to range and increment
 

I am working with a two page workbook. On page one I have upper and lower values of a range (example 0.0 to 5.0, or 0 to 100) and an increment value (example 0.2 or 5). On page two I would like a column to automatically fill with the series of values within the range according to the increment value.

For example: If the range on page one is from 0.0 to 5.0, and the increment is 0.2, I would like a column in page two to fill 0.0, 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8, 1.0, 1.2… …4.8, 5.0 in a column from top to bottom.

I hope this is clear enough; I am not very versed in Excel vocabulary. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

Start value in Sheet1 A1, stopp value in A2, increment in B1:

Sub FillLinear()
With Sheets("Sheet2")
.Range("A1") = Sheets("Sheet1").Range("A1")
.Range("A1").DataSeries Rowcol:=xlColumns, Type:=xlLinear, _
Step:=Sheets("Sheet1").Range("B1"), _
Stop:=Sheets("Sheet1").Range("A2")
End With
End Sub

This works great when I choose to run the macro from the drop down menu. How would I set it up so I can use it as a template? I would like to open the excel file, input the range and increments, then have it generate the series on sheet 2 automatically. Also, if I change the range and/or increment on sheet 1, I would like the series to change accordingly on sheet 2 automatically.

Thanks for your help!

right-click on tab of sheet1 = Show code = paste following code in the
code window:

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Intersect(Target, Range("A2,B1")) Is _
Nothing Then Exit Sub

With Sheets("Sheet2")
.Columns("A").ClearContents
.Range("A1") = Sheets("Sheet1").Range("A1")
.Range("A1").DataSeries Rowcol:=xlColumns, Type:=xlLinear, _
Step:=Sheets("Sheet1").Range("B1"), _
Stop:=Sheets("Sheet1").Range("A2")
End With
End Sub

I am working on Excel for Mac 2011 version 14.1.0 and it does not give me an option for show code when I right click the sheet tab. Is there another place I can enter it? Thanks!
