Hello,

Could anyone tell me how to make cells increase by a single number, and
repeat the same number (i.e.: for a bar code) [the same number] as well? We
need to print a number, and its bar code on a sticker, then a new number and
its new bar code on another sticker. etc., etc, forever I think! Probably
very simple, but I have no idea how to do it.

THANKS a lot for your assistance,

S.
 
Hi

Not sure if this is what you mean but is what I would try.

in cell A1 type your first numer
in cell b1 type =a1
in cell a2 type =a1+1
in cell b2 type =a2
and then copy cells a2/b2 down as far as you want and that will keep on
adding one to the sequence and repeating for you

Hope that helps

You could put the first number in the top cell, select the whole cells to be
filled, including the first one, then use Edit/Fill/Series. I know it works
when the cells are in a column.
