auto count

[Rebekah]

Hi,

How do I make excel automatically number the cells from 1
sequentially like 1 then the next column 2, then 3, etc. ?

Thanks!

Hi
the following formulas will put a sequencing number in column A, if
column B is filled:

in A1 enter the following formula
=IF(B1<>"",1,"")

in A2 enter the formula
=IF(B2<>"",MAX($A$1:OFFSET($A2,-1,0))+1,"")
and copy this formula down for as many rows as you like
