    Making a numbered list and inserting blanks

    Lets see if I can explain this well enough....

    I have a list of member numbers ie:

    0001 green
    0002 smith
    0007 johnson
    00010 jones

    Notice these are in order, but there are no numbers or spaces between 0002 and 0007. The end result of my spreadsheet needs to show me ALL the numbers inbetween with blank spaces as their "name". ie:

    0001 green
    0002 smith
    0003
    0004
    0005
    0006
    0007 johnson
    00010 jones

    Does anyone know how to do this? I am having to do the entire list the long way, by seeking out the blank numbers manually and inserting lines. It is taking forever on a 3000 line list.

    Hi and welcome to the forum.

    If i understand well, then copy-paste the number 0001, where you want and drag down.

    Then use IFERROR,INDEX&MATCH, to find the Names.

    Is this, works for you?
