    Re: Avoid a line on the counting

    It sounds like you want the numbers within the text in column A to be strictly sequential, not skipping any numbers if there are intervening rows.

    But column A is just values, not a formula. How are you putting that data in the file?

    If you want to replace the text in A with a formula, put this in A4 and copy down.

    Formula: copy to clipboard

    Thank you 6StringJazzer for your reply. I didn't explained very well the situation.
    I wanted a formula that enables to get automatically to go from FUNC_032 to FUNC_034 without changing the format of the line 37.
    I would like a system of drag and drop of the formula without changing the format of the line 37.

    In A4:

    =IF(C4="","","FUNC_"&TEXT(COUNTIF(C$4:C4,"<>"),"000")) (or Jeff's similar alternative above)

    Do NOT copy down!

    Instead, select A4 > CTRL+C > select A4:A161 (or however far you need to go) > right-click > paste formula (fX icon).
