Numbering rows with duplicate names
 
I have a list of 4000 names. I need to number the rows in Column A, but I
need any dupliate names to have the same number and then have the numbering
continue down the column.

Thanks for your help.

Numbering rows with duplicate names
 
How about something like:

b1: 1
b2: =if(a2=a1,b1,b1+1)
copy down
