    Filling a column with a repeating pattern of numbers

    Does anyone know how I would fill a column with a simple repeating pattern of numbers, for example, using 1,2,3 over and over again? It seems like something that autofill could do, but I can't seem to get it to work. I tried using Series, but it only displays the series once.

    How do I get this to work? Sometimes I think Excel requires a blood sacrifice to get results.

    Thanks, much appreciated.

    Type 1,2,3 in the column, then in Row 4, =IF(A3=3,1,A3+1) and drag down. An even simpler option is in Row 4, =A1 and drag down.
