    Re: Duplicate serial number

    Your explanation is not quite clear enough. Suggest you provide step by step, what is happening and what you want the result to be -- step by step.

    Re: Duplicate serial number

    I do not want to bring this column by writing it down, then use the formula "VLOOKUP"
    But I want the numbering of the column "B" ، Relying on the repetition of names in column "B"

    Re: Duplicate serial number

    You get 3 solutions to your question.

    So what is your question right now:

    My question to you is: do you understand the formula in:

    #13 (Oeldere) ?
    #15 (Vivek123) ?
    #16 (Egyptian man) ?

    Re: Duplicate serial number

    Your post does not comply with Rule 8 of our Forum RULES. Do not crosspost your question on multiple forums without including links here to the other threads on other forums.

    Cross-posting is when you post the same question in other forums on the web. The last thing you want to do is waste people's time working on an issue you have already resolved elsewhere. We prefer that you not cross-post at all, but if you do (and it's unlikely to go unnoticed), you MUST provide a link (copy the url from the address bar in your browser) to the cross-post.

    Expect cross-posted questions without a link to be closed and a message will be posted by the moderator explaining why. We are here to help so help us to help you!

    Read this to understand why we ask you to do this, and then please edit your first post to include links to any and all cross-posts in any other forums (not just this site).

    Re: Duplicate serial number

    I repeat my question in #17 (since you don't answer this question).

    My question to you is: do you understand the formula in:

    #13 (Oeldere) ?
    #15 (Vivek123) ?
    #16 (Egyptian man) ?
