How to fill five years of quarters?
Type 1Q-2023 in a cell. Grab the fill handle and drag down or right. After 4Q-2023, Excel will jump to 1Q-2024. Dash can be any character.
below is a sample, because of the comma's it brackets the lines with quotes. I found a macro that was supposed to strip away the quotes, but it dont work
