LIMITATIONS of AUTOCOMPLETE Excel automatically completes only those entries that contain text or a combination of text and numbers. Entries that contain only numbers, dates, or times are not automatically completed. It only works for data being entered in columns, and not for those entered across a row. It only applies for columns of continuous data, as soon as gap is left in a column, Autocomplete stops.
