Default Rank Tie

My formula keeps returning 1 for every value on the rank list. I'm not sure
what i'm missing. I need it to rank the ties but not skip any rankings.
=COUNT(B69:B77+1-RANK(B69,B69:B77,)-RANK(B69,B69:B77,1)/2)
Rank Military Time
A B
1200
1530
1830
1200
1330
1730
1330

If you are looking for the correction factor from the Excel help entry for
the RANK function, then I guess you intended to use
=COUNT(B$69:B$77)+1-RANK(B69,B$69:B$77,)-RANK(B69,B$69:B$77,1)/2 ?

Maybe...

=IF(B69="","",SUMPRODUCT(--(B69<B$69:B$77),1/COUNTIF(B$69:B$77,B$69:B
$77&""))+1)

Biff's response to what I think could be the same type of ranking
request.

I was however, now that I see the outcome this may not work for me. If the
rank is 3.5 for both 1200 then my VLOOKUP will still run into the same
problem as if it where to lookup just 1200. Is it possible to have it say
3.1,3.2, and so on for each duplicate? I will never have more then 6
duplicates.

Thank you

Herbert:
Could you provide the duplicate ranks with decimal fractions algorithm on
this blog... I can't gain access to this website you gave.
Thanks,
