Default Increase number down the row of a table

Hi Jorge,

Put a '1' in A1, then place a formula field coded as:
{=COUNT(ABOVE)}
in A2 and copy this into each of the remaining cells in column A. When you're done, select the column and press F9 to update the
fields.

Note: The field brace pairs (ie '{ }') for the above example are created via Ctrl-F9 - you can't simply type them or copy & paste
them from this message.

Hello

Im trying to make a form in Word 2007 to increase the number in a column
down the row.
I can do this
{=a1+1}
{=a2+1}
{=a3+1}

But I nead something similar to the Excel
{=L[-1]C1 + 1}
{=L[-1]C1 + 1}
{=L[-1]C1 + 1}

This form {=L1C1 + 1} work fine. But this {=L[-1]C1 + 1} dont work in MS
Word table.It works in Excel (thats why I expect the same function in the
tables of MS Word).
It is possible ?

Thanks in advance
