How to enter numerical numbers in rows where value is same
I have 500 lines and would like to number each row, however some rows contain
the same information 2 or more times, so I need to keep the numbering in sequence by repeating the same number where the rows contain the same information. |

How to enter numerical numbers in rows where value is same
Thank you very much but =IF(A2=A1,B1,B1+1) did not work for me. Any other
suggestions? Thanks "Biff" wrote: Hi! Try this: Assume your data is in the range A1:A500. In B1 enter 1.
