Autofill down date in Numbers '09

Put the same date in two consecutive rows. Select both cells then drag down on the little circle at the bottom right of the box. Or you can put the date in one cell, copy the cell, then paste it to the rest of the cells.

The Numbers User Guide available to all of us from the Help menu if a perfect cure for this kind of craziness 😉

It is found in Chapter 4 on page 76. The problem with users manuals is it's easy to find something after you know what to look for but you don't necessarily know what to look for until after you've found it.

+You can also add values to cells based on value patterns. For example, if a cell contains+
+a day of the week or a month, you can select the cell and then drag to the right or+
+down to add the next day of the week or month to the adjacent cell.+

+To create new values based on numeric patterns, select two or more cells before+
+dragging. For example, if two selected cells contain 1 and 2, the values 3 and 4 are+
+added when you drag through the adjacent two cells. And if two selected cells contain+
+1 and 4, the values 7 and 10 are added when you drag through the adjacent two cells+
+(values are incremented by 3).+
