Automatically creating lists in the Data pane

What is the AutoFill lists dialog box? This dialog box enables you to create, edit, or delete an autofill list. An autofill list contains frequently-used series of text such as months and days of the week.

When should you use the Autofill Lists dialog box? Use this option when you have a common list of repeating values, such as members of a team or types of food.

To access

In the Data pane, right-click a cell or cell range and select Data > AutoFill List.
IMPORTANT

  • Lists for the days of the week and months of the year are provided out of the box and cannot be modified.

  • Autofill lists are case sensitive.
