Is there just some feature that adds fiels to cells that can inherid some number somewhere, like xml.
If there is details, how to are wellcome.

This works just I needed. Thank's
But you can usually come up with workarounds.
For what you want, you can create a paragraph style that includes "numbered list" functionality, then apply that paragraph style to the column.
By the way: if you want the cells to contain numbers ONLY (and no period after them), go back into the definition of your Paragraph Style and change the Number field from ^#.^t to ^#^t (in other words, remove the period.)
Hope this helps!
