Hi!
I've just been Googling excel forums trying to find a way to do this. I just want to make a cell auto-populate a body of text based on a dropdown menu selection. I know how to do that, though... However, I want to be able to EDIT the text that populates...and I DON'T know how to do that. Basically, I'm auto-populating a template based on the 'type' of template I choose from a dropdown menu; and I want to be able to make small changes to that templated body of text.

Is this all clear? Is there a way to do this?

Type 1Q-2023 in a cell. Grab the fill handle and drag down or right. After 4Q-2023, Excel will jump to 1Q-2024. Dash can be any character.
