Put your starting number in A1 (eg 1). Put this formula in A2:

=A1+1

Then copy that formula down column A for as many rows as you need.

Hope this helps.

Hi Gisela,

I normally do it the way Pete has suggested too, but you can also reference
the ROW formula.

E.g. If you want A1 to equal 1 then formula is simply =Row().

But if you want A1 to equal 100 then formula is =Row()+99.

You can drag these formulas down for as many rows a you require.

Cheers,

Matt
