I am working on a project where I need to have item numbers auto generate into a table, once the user fills in a specifc cell in the title with a number (eg. Site Review No. 2) and the item list would auto generate 2.1, 2.2, 2.3 in the below table. Is this possible? I have searched online and can't find any help.

Excel Facts

Using Function Arguments with nested formulas
If writing INDEX in Func. Arguments, type MATCH(. Use the mouse to click inside MATCH in the formula bar. Dialog switches to MATCH.
Would something like this work?

Cell A2 = Site Review No. 2

A
42.1
52.2
62.3
72.4
82.5
92.6
102.7
112.8
122.9
