Hi

I have data in columns A - C and the number 1 in cell D1.

Does anyone know how I can drag the numbers from cell D1 to the rest of the column D (up to the last row of the data in column A) in consecutive order?

So my data would initially look like this:

ADG
1​
BEH
CFI


However, I would like it to look like the table below (NB - the number of rows will vary, so the drag would have to be dynamic rather than fixed). TIA.

ADG
1​
BEH
2​
CFI
3​

Can Excel fill bagel flavors?
You can teach Excel a new custom list. Type the list in cells, File, Options, Advanced, Edit Custom Lists, Import, OK
One way
VBA Code:
Range("D1").AutoFill Range("D1:D" & Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row), xlFillSeries

You're welcome. I'm not suggesting that it is a better way, just a different way. :)

How is Excel supposed to know what number you want to start with if you don't input it. (Either manually or by code)?
