    Automatic cell number generated by text in a different cell

    Hopefully someone can help with a frustrating formula I am trying to create

    I want to create a formula so if you enter text in a cell it enters 1 in an adjacent cell

    Then the following line would enter the following sequential number

    To make if even more confusing, I don't want the number shown in the cell until the text has been entered.

    Therefore avoiding #value in every field.

    For example

    Job 123 Food123 1 £240
    Job 354 Food256 2 £123
    Job 112 Drink112 3 £112

    ??? - When you type a Job number in the following line 4 would appear under the 3

    Many Thanks

    Matt

    Open the VBE. In the left window are your objects. Double click on the sheet you are working on. Put this code in the right window. Save and close.
