I have a large document containing items that I am trying to number from 1 to x. I have manually entered 1 through 6 below as an example of what my document looks like, and I know about simple dragging of the fill handle (when all adjacent cells are uniformly non-empty), but how can I automatically number each relevant item in my document? Copy/pasting is not an option as I have about 12,000 rows.

Thanks in advance!

How can you turn a range sideways?
Copy the range. Select a blank cell. Right-click, Paste Special, then choose Transpose.

For a macro, maybe this?

Code: 
Sub FillSeries()
Dim i As Long
Dim LR As Long
Dim x As Integer

LR = Cells(Rows.Count, 2).End(xlUp).Row

x = 1

For i = 2 To LR

    If Right(Mid(Range("B" & i), 1, 4), 1) = "-" Then
    
    Range("A" & i) = x
    
    Else: Range("A" & i).Offset(1, 0).Select
   
    x = x - 1
    
    End If
    
x = x + 1
    
Next

End Sub

Thanks kunal! Excel reported an error with the formula and auto-fixed it to the following:

IF(ROW()-COUNTIF(INDIRECT("$B$1:B"&ROW()),">1000")-COUNTIF(INDIRECT("$B$1:B"&ROW()),"")<>ROW()-1-COUNTIF(INDIRECT("$B$1:B"&ROW()-1),">1000")-COUNTIF(INDIRECT("$B$1:B"&ROW()-1),""),ROW()-COUNTIF(INDIRECT("$B$1:B"&ROW()),">1000")-COUNTIF(INDIRECT("$B$1:B"&ROW()),""),"")

When I used it, the resulting output looks like this:

The #3 should be a #1, and there should not be any numbering next to the "1003" heading. Does the formula need to be tweaked a little bit?

I put the formula in A2 and dragged down, but the cells remain empty?

That formula assumes that "900-63026" is a text string in B2.
If column B is numeric entries, formatted to insert the "-", try
=IF(B2>10000,MAX(A$1:A1)+1,"")

I'm an idiot -- your first formula worked. My spreadsheet had some additional rows at the top so obviously A1 and B2 were different. I changed the cell pointers in your formula and it works likes a charm now. Thanks mike!! :beerchug:

What if I wanted to number just the bolded numerical headings like such?

<TABLE style="WIDTH: 102pt; BORDER-COLLAPSE: collapse" cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 width=136 border=0><COLGROUP><COL style="WIDTH: 42pt" width=56><COL style="WIDTH: 48pt; mso-width-source: userset; mso-width-alt: 2340" width=64><COL style="WIDTH: 12pt; mso-width-source: userset; mso-width-alt: 585" width=16><TBODY><TR style="HEIGHT: 15pt; mso-height-source: userset" height=20><TD class=xl66 style="BORDER-RIGHT: windowtext 0.5pt solid; BORDER-TOP: windowtext 0.5pt solid; BORDER-LEFT: windowtext 0.5pt solid; WIDTH: 42pt; BORDER-BOTTOM: windowtext 0.5pt solid; HEIGHT: 15pt; BACKGROUND-COLOR: transparent" align=right width=56 height=20>1</TD><TD class=xl67 style="BORDER-RIGHT: windowtext 0.5pt solid; BORDER-TOP: windowtext 0.5pt solid; BORDER-LEFT: windowtext; WIDTH: 60pt; BORDER-BOTTOM: windowtext 0.5pt solid; BACKGROUND-COLOR: transparent" width=80 colSpan=2>1002</TD></TR><TR style="HEIGHT: 15pt" height=20><TD class=xl66 style="BORDER-RIGHT: windowtext 0.5pt solid; BORDER-TOP: windowtext; BORDER-LEFT: windowtext 0.5pt solid; BORDER-BOTTOM: windowtext 0.5pt solid; HEIGHT: 15pt; BACKGROUND-COLOR: transparent" height=20> </TD><TD class=xl68 style="BORDER-RIGHT: windowtext 0.5pt solid; BORDER-TOP: windowtext 0.5pt solid; BORDER-LEFT: windowtext; BORDER-BOTTOM: windowtext 0.5pt solid; BACKGROUND-COLOR: transparent" colSpan=2>201-66000</TD></TR><TR style="HEIGHT: 15pt" height=20><TD class=xl66 style="BORDER-RIGHT: windowtext 0.5pt solid; BORDER-TOP: windowtext; BORDER-LEFT: windowtext 0.5pt solid; BORDER-BOTTOM: windowtext 0.5pt solid; HEIGHT: 15pt; BACKGROUND-COLOR: transparent" height=20> </TD><TD class=xl68 style="BORDER-RIGHT: windowtext 0.5pt solid; BORDER-TOP: windowtext 0.5pt solid; BORDER-LEFT: windowtext; BORDER-BOTTOM: windowtext 0.5pt solid; BACKGROUND-COLOR: transparent" colSpan=2>201-66010</TD></TR><TR style="HEIGHT: 11.25pt; mso-height-source: userset" height=15><TD class=xl66 style="BORDER-RIGHT: windowtext 0.5pt solid; BORDER-TOP: windowtext; BORDER-LEFT: windowtext 0.5pt solid; BORDER-BOTTOM: windowtext 0.5pt solid; HEIGHT: 11.25pt; BACKGROUND-COLOR: transparent" height=15> </TD><TD class=xl66 style="BORDER-RIGHT: windowtext 0.5pt solid; BORDER-TOP: windowtext; BORDER-LEFT: windowtext; BORDER-BOTTOM: windowtext 0.5pt solid; BACKGROUND-COLOR: transparent"> </TD><TD class=xl66 style="BORDER-RIGHT: windowtext 0.5pt solid; BORDER-TOP: windowtext; BORDER-LEFT: windowtext; BORDER-BOTTOM: windowtext 0.5pt solid; BACKGROUND-COLOR: transparent"> </TD></TR><TR style="HEIGHT: 15pt; mso-height-source: userset" height=20><TD class=xl66 style="BORDER-RIGHT: windowtext 0.5pt solid; BORDER-TOP: windowtext; BORDER-LEFT: windowtext 0.5pt solid; BORDER-BOTTOM: windowtext 0.5pt solid; HEIGHT: 15pt; BACKGROUND-COLOR: transparent" align=right height=20>2</TD><TD class=xl67 style="BORDER-RIGHT: windowtext 0.5pt solid; BORDER-TOP: windowtext 0.5pt solid; BORDER-LEFT: windowtext; BORDER-BOTTOM: windowtext 0.5pt solid; BACKGROUND-COLOR: transparent" colSpan=2>1012</TD></TR><TR style="HEIGHT: 15pt" height=20><TD class=xl66 style="BORDER-RIGHT: windowtext 0.5pt solid; BORDER-TOP: windowtext; BORDER-LEFT: windowtext 0.5pt solid; BORDER-BOTTOM: windowtext 0.5pt solid; HEIGHT: 15pt; BACKGROUND-COLOR: transparent" height=20> </TD><TD class=xl68 style="BORDER-RIGHT: windowtext 0.5pt solid; BORDER-TOP: windowtext 0.5pt solid; BORDER-LEFT: windowtext; BORDER-BOTTOM: windowtext 0.5pt solid; BACKGROUND-COLOR: transparent" colSpan=2>201-64852</TD></TR><TR style="HEIGHT: 15pt" height=20><TD class=xl66 style="BORDER-RIGHT: windowtext 0.5pt solid; BORDER-TOP: windowtext; BORDER-LEFT: windowtext 0.5pt solid; BORDER-BOTTOM: windowtext 0.5pt solid; HEIGHT: 15pt; BACKGROUND-COLOR: transparent" height=20> </TD><TD class=xl68 style="BORDER-RIGHT: windowtext 0.5pt solid; BORDER-TOP: windowtext 0.5pt solid; BORDER-LEFT: windowtext; BORDER-BOTTOM: windowtext 0.5pt solid; BACKGROUND-COLOR: transparent" colSpan=2>201-64854</TD></TR><TR style="HEIGHT: 15pt" height=20><TD class=xl66 style="BORDER-RIGHT: windowtext 0.5pt solid; BORDER-TOP: windowtext; BORDER-LEFT: windowtext 0.5pt solid; BORDER-BOTTOM: windowtext 0.5pt solid; HEIGHT: 15pt; BACKGROUND-COLOR: transparent" height=20> </TD><TD class=xl68 style="BORDER-RIGHT: windowtext 0.5pt solid; BORDER-TOP: windowtext 0.5pt solid; BORDER-LEFT: windowtext; BORDER-BOTTOM: windowtext 0.5pt solid; BACKGROUND-COLOR: transparent" colSpan=2>201-65265</TD></TR><TR style="HEIGHT: 15pt" height=20><TD class=xl66 style="BORDER-RIGHT: windowtext 0.5pt solid; BORDER-TOP: windowtext; BORDER-LEFT: windowtext 0.5pt solid; BORDER-BOTTOM: windowtext 0.5pt solid; HEIGHT: 15pt; BACKGROUND-COLOR: transparent" height=20> </TD><TD class=xl68 style="BORDER-RIGHT: windowtext 0.5pt solid; BORDER-TOP: windowtext 0.5pt solid; BORDER-LEFT: windowtext; BORDER-BOTTOM: windowtext 0.5pt solid; BACKGROUND-COLOR: transparent" colSpan=2>201-65266</TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE>
