AutoNumbering

    I have been trying to create a project in excel for my a level and i cant make it insert a row and put the next number in, my teacher suggested auto numbering if there is such a thing, could you help please?

    Try looking at the +ROW() function which will input the row number.


    HTH

    There are three types of people in this world.
    Those who can count and those who can't.

    Try creating a formula that shows nothing if the adjacent column B cell is blank, but shows the value in the cell above it +1 if it is not blank.


    Need more help?


    We are being vague on purpose. :)

    Hi


    In your top cell of the far left Column (say A1) type: 1 next cell down type =A1+1 and copy this down.


    Push Alt+F11 go to Insert>Module and paste in this code.



    Code
    Sub InsertRow()
ActiveCell.EntireRow.Insert
    With ActiveCell
         .FormulaR1C1 = "=R[-1]C+1"
         .Offset(1, 0).FormulaR1C1 = "=R[-1]C+1"
    End With
End Sub


    Push Alt+Q to get back to Excel. Now select the cell, in the far left Column of your table, where the row should be inserted. Push Alt+F8 click Options and assign a shortcut key. Click OK anf OK agian. Now run the macro using the assigned shortcut key.
