Right click sheet tab>view code>insert this. Now when you put 149 in col A
col B will populate
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.Row < 2 Or Target.Column <> 1 Then Exit Sub
Target.Offset(, 1) = "#" & Target & " Story"
End Sub

Subject: $$Excel-Macros$$ populate consecutive numbers in discrete rows with
other text
I have two adjacent columns of consecutive numbers, spaced several
rows apart each. For example:
A B
149 | #149 Story
150 | #150 Story
I know how to create consecutive numbers in column A. Is there a way
to automatically populate the numbers in column B? Is there a way to
combine text and function commands?
Thanks very much!
