Try this bash solution (assuming AAA BB CDA comes after AAA BB CCZ and AA comes after Z):

Code:
#!/bin/bash
S="0123456789ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ"
function inc
{
    local I F B
    F=${1%?}
    B=${1#$F}

    case "$B" in
       (\ ) echo "$(inc "$F") " ;;
       (Z) [ -z "$F" ] && echo AA || echo "$(inc "$F")A" ;;
       (*) echo "$F${S:1+36#$B:1}"
    esac
}

read -p "Source : " src
read -p "Increment Number : " cnt

for((i=0;i<cnt;i++)) {
    echo "$src"
    src=$(inc "$src")
}

XmScrollBarSetValues(library call)										XmScrollBarSetValues(library call)

NAME

       XmScrollBarSetValues -- A ScrollBar function that changes ScrollBar's increment values and the slider's size and position

SYNOPSIS

       #include <Xm/ScrollBar.h>
       void XmScrollBarSetValues (widget, value, slider_size, increment, page_increment,
       notify)
	       Widget  widget;
	       int     value;
	       int     slider_size;
	       int     increment;
	       int     page_increment;
	       Boolean notify;
       (void)

DESCRIPTION

       XmSetScrollBarValues  changes  the  ScrollBar's	increment values and the slider's size and position.  The scroll region is overlaid with a
       slider bar that is adjusted in size and position using the main ScrollBar or set slider function attributes.

       widget	 Specifies the ScrollBar widget ID.

       value	 Specifies the ScrollBar's slider position. Refer to the XmNvalue resource described on XmScrollBar(3).

       slider_size
		 Specifies the size of the slider. Refer to the XmNsliderSize resource	described  on  XmScrollBar(3).	This  argument	sets  that
		 resource.  Specify a value of 0 (zero) if you do not want to change the value.

       increment Specifies  the  amount  of  button increment and decrement.  Refer to the XmNincrement resource described on XmScrollBar(3). This
		 argument sets that resource.  Specify a value of 0 (zero) if you do not want to change the value.

       page_increment
		 Specifies the amount of page increment and decrement.	Refer to the XmNpageIncrement resource described on  XmScrollBar(3).  This
		 argument sets that resource.  Specify a value of 0 (zero) if you do not want to change the value.

       notify	 Specifies a Boolean value that, when True, indicates a change in the ScrollBar value and also specifies that the ScrollBar widget
		 automatically activates the XmNvalueChangedCallback with the recent change.  If it is set to False, it specifies any change  that
		 has occurred in the ScrollBar's value, but does not activate XmNvalueChangedCallback.

       For a complete definition of ScrollBar and its associated resources, see XmScrollBar(3).
