Hi to all,
I can't seem to find any good answer which would help me out.
1. I need Excel to set the right starting IP address when user enters the third octet (B1) -> first IP always being 192.168.X.1
2. Then to increment the IP address for Y times (Y = B2)

Hope this makes sense and you can help me out. Thank you in advance!
BR, Dean

Thank you. Somehow the sequence part is what I'm looking for - I assume. But but obviously I need some more digging into this because my first IP should be 192.168.X.201 not 1 and did something worng, getting the Spill error...

It's a single cell formula, and you'll need to allow room to let it spill, i.e. don't have any other values or formulae in the way.

AB
18
2201
33
4192.168.8.201
5192.168.8.202

Hm. Not quite sure how to solve this now. When I put this formula into my table it spills and not working

If I move the same formula out of my table in an empty cell in the same worksheet it's working as supposed.

Ok, now I converted the table to Range and it works fine. Will see if that's acceptable for all other functions I'm using.
