G Guest Jan 1, 2007 #1 Hi, trying to set a spreadseet with dates all the way to the end, do I have to hold autofill to the end or can I do it another way?

G Guest Jan 1, 2007 #2 Put the start date in the first cell then select the area you want to fill including the cell you put the first date in. This can be done using shift+end shift+down-arraw. Then from the edit menu select fill|series... Then select rows, date, day,step 1 and click ok.

G Gord Dibben Jan 1, 2007 #3 Are you sure you want to fill the date into 65536 cells? That would take you up to June 6, 2086 Follow Martin's advice but select a smaller range. You can select a range by typing A1:A4000 in the namebox then hit ENTER and Edit>Fill Series. Gord Dibben MS Excel MVP

G Guest Jan 2, 2007 #4 Thanks Gord. I didn't realize that you could use the name box to select a range.
