Sure you can simply drag a formula down.

Try this for example, I think it is what you mean, and you can then use it on yours.

Type 1 in A1
Type this formula in A2 "=A1+1"

Then select A2, and look for the small square in the bottom right corner of the selected cell. Click on this and drag downwards for as many rows as you need.

(you could just put 1 in A1, 2 in A2, select both then drag this down, that would work as well)

I’m not sure what you mean but i have an idea. In the first row type 1, second row type 2, third row type 3. Then select the three cells. Once selected click on the bottom left corner of the box (there is a little black box there) and drag the mouse down and a yellow box appears with a number in it, drag until that number equals 140. Sorry if thats not what you want.
