    As long as the sheet is sorted so that all same invoice numbers are together (even if not in order).
    Formula: copy to clipboard

    If they could be mixed, then
    Formula: copy to clipboard

    Which over thousands of rows will be much slower to calculate.

    in C3
    =COUNTIF(B$3:B3,B3)*10
    and copy down

    Ensure you describe your problem clearly, I have little time available to solve these problems and do not appreciate numerous changes to them.

    Shouldn't that be B$3:B3 (I've not seen it written that way before) ?

    No different to using Z100:A1 in a formula, excel will 'correct' it without errors.

    Did you try the alternative that I suggested as well?

    Which language is your PC set up for?

    The suggestions provided might need translating if not English.

    Re: Line Item Sequence No

    Hi Jason,

    Actually C3 column is the result column that i want.it wasn't not in the original sheet.i really want sequence number for the one invoice line.it like this

    15-10-00001 = 10
    15-10-00001 = 20
    15-10-00002 = 10 (This should comes again 10 Number Format)
    15-10-00002 = 20
    15-10-00002 = 30
    15-10-00002 = 40
    15-10-00003 = 10

    Like this.

    Thank you,
    Dan

    Re: Line Item Sequence No

    In your sample file, the formula goes in C3.

    =IF(B3=B2,C2+10,10)

    B3 refers to the invoice number in the same row, B2 refers to the heading, "Ref No" and C2 refers to the heading "S_ORD_ITEM".

    As you copy it down, everything moves with the formula so the first part always looks at the same row as the formula, the second and third parts look 1 row above the formula.
