Done this in the uploaded code but if it does not work you just need to put this in an expression component

Format("A{0}", x)

Update:  If you use a series component to denote the list of numbers you can just edit the expression to read:

Format("A{0}", Int(x))

Matt, that's spot on, thank you.

In the famous closing words of Columbo. Just one more thing...  The sequence of numbers are from a different area which is created from other functions - I'm not using a list.

How do I move the returned value one decimal space so that I'm left with A1 rather than A1.0?

I could use your format line with sequence but I can't get that to count from 1 to 20+ when it gets to 10 it's returns 1 then 0.

Thanks again!

Sorted it - might be dirty but it works :)

If you want to use Concat just put an Int component between the series and the B input.

If you use the expression option just put this in the expression it includes the A already.

You just need to plug the series into the x input

Format("A{0}", Int(x))
