Please help.

Excel Facts

What is the fastest way to copy a formula?
If A2:A50000 contain data. Enter a formula in B2. Select B2. Double-click the Fill Handle and Excel will shoot the formula down to B50000.
According to your rules

increment the reference number only if the vendor column and date is changed.
then the second line here should not have changed as the date is the same. Is that just a mistake or should the rule be different?
