I have a 4 digit padlock like this one that I have forgotten the number to. I can buy a new lock for ~$15 but I'd rather try & unlock the one I have. I'd like to create an excel sheet that contains all the different possible combinations (10,000 of them). That way, I can keep track of the numbers I've tried.

This is what I have in mind or something similar to it.

If that's too difficult, I can just as easily make do with having all the numbers in column A, straight down starting at cell A1.

if you are able to use PowerQuery (Get&Transform)
try this:
Code: 
[SIZE=1]let
    Source = Table1,
    #"Added Custom" = Table.AddColumn(Source, "Custom", each Table1),
    #"Expanded Custom" = Table.ExpandTableColumn(#"Added Custom", "Custom", {"source"}, {"Custom.source"}),
    #"Added Custom1" = Table.AddColumn(#"Expanded Custom", "Custom", each Table1),
    #"Expanded Custom1" = Table.ExpandTableColumn(#"Added Custom1", "Custom", {"source"}, {"Custom.source.1"}),
    #"Added Custom2" = Table.AddColumn(#"Expanded Custom1", "Custom", each Table1),
    #"Expanded Custom2" = Table.ExpandTableColumn(#"Added Custom2", "Custom", {"source"}, {"Custom.source.2"}),
    #"Merged Columns" = Table.CombineColumns(Table.TransformColumnTypes(#"Expanded Custom2", {{"source", type text}, {"Custom.source", type text}, {"Custom.source.1", type text}, {"Custom.source.2", type text}}, "en-GB"),{"source", "Custom.source", "Custom.source.1", "Custom.source.2"},Combiner.CombineTextByDelimiter("", QuoteStyle.None),"result")
in
    #"Merged Columns"[/SIZE]

Logit, thank you for doing that. I need a blank row inserted in between each line so that I can mark it "Yes" or "No"
Example:

Logit - please disregard my previous message.

Sandy666 - thanks for the file. It will do. What is PowerQuery by the way?
