Hi All,
I was wondering if it is possible to set up an auto-incrementing field in Calc for an ID field?
Basically, I want each 'ID' to be the sum of the previous ID +1.
Is there an existing format option for this? Or a simple formula I could use?

Thanks,
Heather

OOo comes with a database module.
Database with input form to enter integer numbers with auto-IDs and auto-timestamps
Database content from various sources can be used in all office ducuments almost seamless. Calc handles db-data even better than it's own cell-data.
