Hello I got Access 2007 lately. I used to have access 2003. There is one
thing that I don't know how to do in Access 2007. In the 2003 version, in a
table when a field was a numeric field, and I typed 1 in the first cell then
2 in the bottom cell by holding the "down arrow" of my keybord, Access
started filling all the cells of that column (3,4,5,6,7,etc) for as long as I
held down the "down arrow key".

In Access 2007 this doesn't happen. Is there away to have this option? It
was very convinient to me. I hope I explained it well cause English isn't my
language.

Thank you.
 
You have no idea how many people hated that behaviour!

No, it's gone from Access. It had no business being there in the first
place: it really had no place in Relational Database theory. As well, you
shouldn't be working directly with the tables anyhow: you should always use
a form for data entry.
