    Autonumber to skip blank lines and then and restart number series

    In the spreadsheet, I have a series of data with blank rows in between data sets. Can someone give me a formula that will produce the number in the sort order column.

    Formula in sort order column to produce:
    Autonumber starting with 1
    Skip blank lines
    Restart after a blank line with 1

    Thank you
