I have typed a self counting up code in a table to help with the issue i had previously where the labeled numbering system would count up even when i add cells in between.
I have multiple sections to this one table and the only way i can do so is by a cumbersome method but this method is flawed as the sections inbetween will also be resequenced to the wrong “Log entry”.
My code is :
=IF(AND(ROW()>60,ROW()<81),$S$3&TEXT(ROW()-61,"00"), IF(AND(ROW()>80,ROW()<101),$S$4&TEXT(ROW()-81,"00"), IF(AND(ROW()>100,ROW()<140),$S$5&TEXT(ROW()-101,"00"),$S$2&TEXT(ROW()-2,"00"))))
The $S$2/3/4/5 is a label im using eg: ROW S2= “LOG_testA_”, ROW S3=“LOG_TestB_”....
So if i add a new cell, i have to renumber the “AND” row. That’s the cumbersome thing. Is there something i can do to overcome this? something to read from a column or row? seems like some far-fetched kind of code.
i used a Excel 2010 and uploaded it to google drive. But i can’t post here
