I have a range of #s and I want to count the first occurrence of each number.

results for 300 should have been 3 for each occurrence. *But I would prefer
to have 3 for the first occurrence of 300 and 0 for the 2nd and 3rd
occurrence. *Help.

Column A * * * *Results
10 * * *1
15 * * *1
300 * * 3
300 * * 2
300 * * 1
20 * * *2
20 * * *1


Try...

=COUNTIF($A$1:$A$7,A1)*IF(COUNTIF($A$1:A1,A1)1,0, 1)
