Does anyone know how to copy a value down a column (other than copy cell and paste into table one at a time)? I would like to copy a value down 20+ rows in a single column at one time. Bonus: can you also increase incrementally down a column as your row increases? Thanks!

If you need to fill the entire column with the same value, you can use "Edit->Find And Replace...". your column, select 'Find Any', and fill the new value into 'Replace with:'. If you need to fill only some of the column's rows, then select them first and set 'Target' 'Selected Rows'.

To create a new column with incrementing values use "Data->Add Row Numbers". In the dialog you have various options that should be obvious.
