Try this in cell B2, then copy down as far as your data goes.

Hello,

How would I go about adding a Sequence/Instance Number to Duplicate Records?

Example: I have a list of duplicate site names and I want the 1st instance
to be "1" and the 2nd instance to be "2".

Site | Seq/Inst Num
ABBEVILLE | 1
ABBEVILLE | 2
AIRPORT MEMPHIS | 1
AIRPORT MEMPHIS | 2
AIRPORT NASHVILLE | 1
AIRPORT NASHVILLE | 2

Thanks!
Jaret
