    In A3 write =$A$2+ROWS($A$2:A2) and pull down

    Yeah..

    What i would do is as the person above said


    example


    --------a------------------b----------------c-------------
    ---10/04/10----------= a1 + 1------------ =b1 + 1 I


    Then just drag it across as far as you need, simply referencing each cell to look at the one to the left and do a +1 calculation.
