Thank you for your prompt reply, Brian.  It is much appreciated

Perhaps I didn't explain myself clearly enough.

In simple terms, I want to know whether there is any way that when I enter a
new date in Column D it will automaticall increase the current value in
Column B by 1.  I cannot think of a solution - but then I only use Calc for
simple things - but was hoping that there is a solution.  If there isn't, I
will just have to try and remember to manually increase the value of Column
B every time I enter a new date in Column D.
