    adding numbers to a vertical column

    Hi, How are you going?
    This is probably very easy, but I have not been able to work it out myself. if someone could help me, I'd appreciate it!

    I want to add the number 1 to each numeral in a large vertical column of figures

    for example:
    6
    11
    11
    9
    10
    10
    7
    etc.

    I'd like to just click a button and get this:
    7
    12
    12
    10
    11
    11
    8
    etc.

    or this:
    6 7
    11 12
    11 12
    9 10
    10 11
    10 11
    7 8
    etc.

    i don't need to add the column up as a total, i just need to convert the column to a column list of the same numerals with the number 1 added to them, whether this is in the same column or in a new one, it doesn't matter. Oh, by the way, I'm using Mac OS X!

    thanks from Susan

    A good way to do this is to type 1 into a cell, then copy the cell, select the entire range you want to update, then select paste special\add

    Thank You

    Thanks both Carim & Mallycat for your help.

    I tried both ways and Mallycat's solution seems to be the most effective.

    Thanks Honey! Much Appreciated
