Entering numbers Incrementally

Does Access have the increment function like in Excel where you can enter
incrementing numbers in concecutive cells by dragging down, or across?

No. The closest is the Autonumber data type - which is really a Long data
type that can either increment to the next number for the next record or
choose a random number for the next record.

It's not the same as Excel. If you start entering a series going down the
column, as you click in the next row, it will fill in 1 number. There is no
dragging for a series of numbers.
