You could probably set up a spreadsheet to generate the numbers from 1 to 9999. (10000 not being symmetrical) Then using a formula to take the number and reverse it and compare it to the original number. For a five digit number strip the first then second then third digits etc, into five separate columns. Then you concatenate the columns in reverse to produce a reversed version of the original number. Use MID to extract the numbers into their component parts. Then check it against the original text entry. If it reverses and is true, a 1 is placed in a check cell to confirm the match with nothing placed in the column ( "" ) if there is no match Then you simply sort by the columns of 1s (MK) in ascending order followed by the actual symmetrical numbers (NUM) in ascending order. I'm actually working on this now. You will need 5 sheets set up. The first deals with single digit numbers. The second, two digit numbers, the third, three digit, etc. Okay: done it. This is for a 3-digit number check. The '[ ]' symbols represent cells. [ NUM ][ DIGIT1 ][ DIGIT2 ][ DIGIT3 ][ RNUM ][ CHK ][ MARK ] [ 111 ][ 1 ][ 1 ][ 1 ][ 111 ][ TRUE ][ 1 ] [ 211 ][ 2 ][ 1 ][ 1 ][ 112 ][FALSE][ ] Formulas [ 111 ][=MID($A2,1,1)][=MID($A2,2,1)][=MID($A2... ][=EXACT(A2,E2)][ 1 ] [ 211 ][=MID($A2,1,1)][=MID($A2,2,1)][=MID($A2... ][=EXACT(A2,E2)][] This what you put in each column - the text above is being shortened.. [Square brackets] indicate the contents of the cell. (Parentheses) indicate the spreadsheet cell reference. Example: In Cell A1, type NUM In Cell A2, type 111 In Cell B1, type DIGIT1 In Cell B2, type =MID($A2,1,1) and so on [ NUM ](A1) = [ 111 ](A2) [ DIGIT1 ](B1) = [=MID($A2,1,1)](B2) [ DIGIT2 ](C1) = [=MID($A2,2,1)](C2) [ DIGIT3 ](D1) = [=MID($A2,3,1)](D2) [ RNUM ](E1) = [=CONCATENATE(D2,C2,B2)](E2) [ CHK ](F1) = [=EXACT(A2,E2)](F2) [ MARK ](G1) = [ 1 ](G2) Just done it... For 1-digit numbers (9): - 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 For 2-digit numbers (9): - 11, 22, 33, 44, 55, 66, 77, 88, 99 For 3-digit numbers between 100 and 999, here is the list of 90 numbers: - 101, 111, 121, 131, 141, 151, 161, 171, 181, 191, 202, 212, 222, 232, 242, 252, 262, 272, 282, 292, 303, 313, 323, 333, 343, 353, 363, 373, 383, 393, 404, 414, 424, 434, 444, 454, 464, 474, 484, 494, 505, 515, 525, 535, 545, 555, 565, 575, 585, 595, 606, 616, 626, 636, 646, 656, 666, 676, 686, 696, 707, 717, 727, 737, 747, 757, 767, 777, 787, 797, 808, 818, 828, 838, 848, 858, 868, 878, 888, 898, 909, 919, 929, 939, 949, 959, 969, 979, 989, 999 For 4-digit numbers (90): - 1001, 1111, 1221, 1331, 1441, 1551, 1661, 1771, 1881, 1991, 2002, 2112, 2222, 2332, 2442, 2552, 2662, 2772, 2882, 2992, 3003, 3113, 3223, 3333, 3443, 3553, 3663, 3773, 3883, 3993, 4004, 4114, 4224, 4334, 4444, 4554, 4664, 4774, 4884, 4994, 5005, 5115, 5225, 5335, 5445, 5555, 5665, 5775, 5885, 5995, 6006, 6116, 6226, 6336, 6446, 6556, 6666, 6776, 6886, 6996, 7007, 7117, 7227, 7337, 7447, 7557, 7667, 7777, 7887, 7997, 8008, 8118, 8228, 8338, 8448, 8558, 8668, 8778, 8888, 8998, 9009, 9119, 9229, 9339, 9449, 9559, 9669, 9779, 9889, 9999 Total 198 It's easy to adapt for 1, 2, 4, 5 or more digit numbers.
