How to update row value automatically in excel - excel

How can I update the row values automatically in cell ?
Please see below image
If I change the value of "1" to "12" I want the down arrow cells to follow from it but increment by 1 like the image below

Write formula - =1 + A1 and drag it down to your limits.
change value 1 to any value, it will follow the increment as you want.

Assuming that the value 1 in your first image is cell A1, then yo7 can enter the followint formula into A2:
=A1 + 1
Then, copy this formula down the A column as far as you need. Now when you change the value of A1 to some other value, the whole column should update.

Excel Match If Greater than Zero

I'm working in excel and i want to use the formula MATCH to retrieve the row of each number greater than zero in a column. For example, having the next column
Number
0
0
6
1
0
8
0
0
0
0
10
I want to obtain in other column the following:
Rows
3
4
6
11
¿Is it posible to do this with the MATCH formula?
If not, then ¿How can achieve this?
Assuming your data is in the range A2:A12, then try this Array Formula which requires confirmation with Ctrl+Shift+Enter instead of Enter alone.
In B2
=IFERROR(SMALL(IF($A$2:$A$12>0,ROW($A$2:$A$12)-ROW($A$2)+1),ROWS(B$2:B2)),"")
Confirm with Ctrl+Shift+Enter and then copy it down until you get blank cells.
Adjust the ranges as per requirement, but don't refer the whole column reference like A:A in the formula.
B1: =MATCH(TRUE,A:A>0, 0) Ctrl+Shift+Enter
B2: =IFERROR(MATCH(TRUE,(A:A>0)*ROW(A:A)>B1, 0),"") Ctrl+Shift+Enter
copy B2 and paste along column B.
Assuming your data is in the range A2:A12.
Select the cells B2:B12. Press F2. It will allow you to enter values in the B2 cell.
Copy paste the below formula in the B2 and then press Ctrl+Shift+Enter
=IFERROR(AGGREGATE(15,6,IF(A2:A12<>0,ROW()-ROW(A1),NA),ROW()-ROW(B1)),"")
Note if you select only B2 and enter the formula then you will get only the top one value. Adjust ranges accordingly if required.

How to assign sequence number when the value entered into nearby cell?

I want A column to automatically generate sequence number when B column has value inserted.
As my image shows(assign sequence number.jpg), when firstly insert a in B1, it will generate 1 as first insert in A1.
When insert next value b in B5, generate 2 as 2nd insert in A5.
Please help.
I tried IF(B2<>"",MAX($A$1:$A$10)+1,"") but it didn't work.

The below mentioned formula will work. But the only thing here is you have to enter 1 in cell A1. Then enter the below formula in A2.
=IF(B1:B10="","",COUNTIF($A$1:A1,">0")+1)
You can change the range according to your requirement. Let me know if this works.

Excel Drag to increment sheet name between file

how to drag to increment the excel sheet from different file?
eg,
Cell A1 =+'[filename]59'!J6
Cell B1 =+'[filename]60'!J6
Cell C1 =+'[filename]61'!J6
i tried this now
=INDIRECT("SHEET"&COLUMN()-1&"!J6")
and readjust all the name etc, and now i wanna drag down and increment the cell to J7,J8,J9 etc
how do i do it?
Help please
Try =INDIRECT("SHEET"&COLUMN()-1&"!J"&ROW()). ROW() returns your current row. So, if you write =ROW() in A15, you'll get 15. Good for dragging down :)
If you want to change the value so that it matches a row different from your current row, you'll need to add or subtract from ROW(). So, if you wanted to put this in some cell B2 or C2 and have it match up to J5, you'd have to add 3. That would work like this:
=INDIRECT("SHEET"&COLUMN()-1&"!J"&(ROW()+3))
Obviously, you should change the 3 to whatever adjustment value you need.

Excel : How Can I Get First Cell Content

How Can I Get First Cell Content ?
here is my sheet
A
1 Color
2 Red
3 Blue
4 Yellow
note : Color has filter
i want to make the cell B1 = first cell of column A - I try type in B1 =A2
but when i make filter (example i select blue) the cell B2 show nothing (i want B1 to show the filtered data on first column )
A Non-Volatile AND Non-Array entered option is to use a helper column:
In B2 Enter =SUBTOTAL(3,A2) and drag it down. This will mark every row with a 0 or a 1 depending on if it is visible or not.
Then in B1 you can simply enter:
=INDEX(A2:A4,MATCH(1,B2:B4,0))
The above will search the B column for the first 1 (stands for visible), and return the value of the cell in column A of that row.
In B1 enter the array formula:
=INDEX(A2:A100,MATCH(1,SUBTOTAL(3,OFFSET(A2:A100,ROW(A2:A100)-ROW($A$2),,1)),0))
Array formula must be entered with CNTRL-SHFT-ENTER rather than just the ENTER key

Excel : Increment Row number on fill right

When one "Fills right in excel" , the Column name updates
eg.
1st cell
is
=A2
If I fill right the next cell will be =B2
But rather than the column incrementing I want to increment the row number
so 1st cell is
=A2
The cell on its right is
=A3
how do i do that?
If you're putting the first formula in B2 then
=OFFSET($A$2,COLUMN()-2,0)
The -2 part is because we're starting in column B. You need to change it for whatever column you're actually starting in such that the second argument equal zero.
You can do this using the INDIRECT function. Suppose we want formulas in cells B1, C1, D1... that should reference A2, A3, A4... Starting in cell B2 we can enter:
=INDIRECT("R[" & COLUMN(RC)-1 & "]C1", FALSE)
In cell B2, this will render as:
=INDIRECT("R[1]C1", FALSE)
In this situation, I'm using R1C1 format. The second parameter to the INDIRECT function tells the function to use R1C1 format. The function itself (again in cell B2), says "give me what is in the cell that is one row down and the first column". In the original formula, by basing the row value on the current column number, it will update the formula to a new row as you fill right.
Now, if you are asking if there is a way to do this using the GUI like say using the Fill box with the mouse, the answer is no. There is no means to transpose the fill using the GUI.
