Alternating table column numbering, Col1 Numbers, Col2 Letters? [closed]

edit

This is quite an unusual numbering - may I ask why you want this kind of numbering?

And also it is not clear to me what should happen when you insert a new row.

Should it then be like this?

 1. one | a. dos   | 4. tres   | d. anothernewone
 2. two | b. three | 5. quatro | e. yetanotherone
 3. uno | c. four  | 6. newone | f. anotherone

Not sure whether you're talking about a table or "text-flow-columns" either. Adding a "row" sound like you're talking about a table, but even then I cannot think of a case where this kind of numbering would make sense... So while the "number range" fields can be used in a table and when the numbering is increasing horizontally (1.. a.. 2.. b...) it won't work vertically. The term "adding a row" doesn't really fit with text-flow-columns concept, so I'm quite puzzled by your question....

Even with helper-rows/columns to get a count, you'd still need to manually adjust the references after adding rows.

Bottom line: Please provide more background info on what sense is behind this numbering. Maybe then people can come up with better suggestions.
