Autofill

Some formatting seems to affect autofill - what type of formatting makes autofill effectively patterned as opposed to 'predictive' filling e.g instead of dragging the number 10 down, it changes the next row to 11

RE: Autofill

Hello Hannah
Thank you for your question

Formatting the column as number means the autofil with numbers will not increase with each row. Formatting the column as text means the autofill will add one to the number with each row.


If this resolves your question, please mark it as resolved. If not, please reply with more information.

Kind regards
Cress
