count cells, then reset count when value in another cell changes
I am trying to create a function that will assign number for TaskID. It will
restart a count everytime there is a '0' in the Step column. This will be used for a database to group taskID and task separate. IF(a2 = 0, (0+1) < this does not work. Do you know how to do this? Step TaskID 0 1 1 1 2 1 0 2 1 2 2 2 3 2 4 2 0 3 1 3 2 3 3 3 4 3 5 3 -- Misty :-) Message posted via OfficeKB.com http://www.officekb.com/Uwe/Forums.a...tions/200902/1 |

One way...
Assuming the first entry is *always* 0. Enter 1 in B2 Enter this formula in B3 and copy down as needed: =IF(A3=0,B2+1,B2) -- Biff Microsoft Excel MVP "Mitchell_Collen via OfficeKB.com" <u33726@uwe wrote in message news:91f7b91409b5c@uwe...

Try this:
