Hi,
Here's one way to do it, applied to an example that takes less space:
With ten rows, say we want to count down from 365 to 358 in the middle
of the middle column ($2), leaving an empty row on top and bottom (@1
and @10).
Set the value of @2$2 to 365, either manually or (as below) in the table
formula. Then set the rest of the range from rows @3 down to @9 to
decrement by one from the cell above (@-1):
| | | |
| | 365 | |
| | 364 | |
| | 363 | |
| | 362 | |
| | 361 | |
| | 360 | |
| | 359 | |
| | 358 | |
| | | |
#+TBLFM: @2$2=365::@3$2..@9$2=@-1-1
Yours,
Christian
