Hi,
I wanted to insert dates that would be repeated 3 times and then move to the
next day on the calendar, something like this:
02.02.09
02.02.09
02.02.09
02.03.09
02.03.09
02.03.09
Is there a function, that I would be able to drag over several rows?
Thank you in advance,
Arthur N
 
try this

in cell A1 put any date
and cell A2 put this formula and drag it down

=IF(COUNTIF($A$1:A1,A1)<=2,A1,A1+1)
 
Assuming your start date is in A2, put this in A3 and copy down...

=IF(COUNTIF(A$2:A2,A2)<3,A2,A2+1)

If your start cell is something else, then change all the references above
to that cell's reference... but make sure the first reference is absolute
and the rest are relative (as I have done in the formula above).
 
LOL... I guess this was a case of my not being able to see the forest for
the trees. You are absolutely right... excellent solution.
