About this dragging...

This is something that has perplexed me for [literally] years. It used to
happen with e2k, and is now happening with e2k3.

When I have a value in a cell, be it a month or some number, SOMETIMES when I
try to drag it to "copy" it, instead it'll increment itself. "Jan" will become
"Feb", then "Mar", etc. Likewise the number in the dragged cell will increment.

BUT...this only happens SOMETIMES. Other times, the value, whatever it is,
REMAINS THE SAME.

Of course, THIS time, I'm wanting it to increment, and it won't. (As opposed to
my usual not wanting it to and it does! :) )

Can someone enlighten me as to what it is I'm doing, not doing, should be doing,
WHATEVER?!?!

Thanks in advance,

Tom
