Autofill sequence of numbers with a suffix
Hi all,
I want to autofill a sequence of numbers that are prefixed and suffixed by letters. I only want the numbers to change sequentially. Any clue on how to do this?
For example, I have MMDR_Area_2541.JPG and I want that to become MMDR_Area_2541.JPG,MMDR_Area_2542.JPG, MMDR_Area_2543.JPG....
Is it possible?
Thanks for the help!
Welcome to the forum.
Try this:
="MMDR_Area_"&SEQUENCE(20,,2541,1)&".JPG"
Change 20 to however many rows you wish to generate.

Thanks Ali, I am (obviously) new to the forum and really appreciate the guidance!
With your starting value in A2, you can use this formula in A3:
="MMDR_Area_"&MID(A2,11,4)+1&".JPG"
Copy down as far as you need to.
Hope this helps.
