Re: [O] Filling a list of dates in a spreadsheet
Hi, S- (Shift-Return) is your friend. After you've entered the first two dates, move down to the third row (which needs to be empty), and hit S-. You can continue pressing S- without moving down a row each time. Yours, Christian Cameron Horsburgh writes: > Hi folks, > > I'm putting together a spreadsheet in org-mode.

[O] Filling a list of dates in a spreadsheet
Hi folks, I'm putting together a spreadsheet in org-mode. This is the general format: |--+---+| | Date | Field One | Field Two | |--+---+| | [2016-02-07 Sun] | || | [2016-02-14 Sun] | || | [A few lines]| || | [A few more lines] | || | [2016-12-25 Sun] | || |--+---++ The date column needs to have a list of dates for every Sunday this year. In a traditional spreadsheet program there would be a function to 'fill' the series of dates automatically. I can't see anything in org-mode that would do this. Am I missing something, or will I just have to do it manually? Thanks! Cameron Horsburgh
