excel automatic numbering

I have to type b1 - b105 - i was wondering is there someway where if you type
b1 - b10 it will continue the numbering on its own?

First select a few cells and put a little info or numbers like b1, b2, b3 now highlight b1 and all the way down as far as you want your numbering to go, say to cell 150. Select Edit, Fill, Series, Auto Fill. This should do the trick.

If you just want Numbers in B1 - B105 (i.e. 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,etc.) then in cell B1 enter 1 then in B2 enter =B1+1 and then copy and paste as far as you need to go - then if you want you can get "rid" of the formula - do a copy and paste special - values.
If you want something like B1, B2, B3, B4, etc. then do the same as above and then in another column - enter B or what ever text you want for each cell and then use the CONCATENATE function.

In the first column for example type in

b1
b2
B3
b4

select all of them, If you pull/drag down the cells, by using the little
balck box at the bottom right hand corner of the selected cells, and just
pull down as far as you need.

Excel should pick up the pattern.
