Note that the first solution above will flag the first occurence of each
value (duplicate or otherwise); the second solution will flag the second
occurence (=the first duplicate, literally). Choose the one that actually
matches your need.

I have a list of records that have many duplicates. I need a formula that I
can use in the adjacent column to show a 1 for the first instance of a
duplicate and a 0 for any others. The list is sorted so all dupes are
together.
