Try this formula for second question:
=IF(MATCH(A2,A:A,0)=ROW(),
=IF(MATCH(A2,A:A,0)=ROW(),
If you actually did want VBA instead of teylyn's excellent suggestion which I would also recommend, here is an update of the file with sample code
Sub CountID()
For Each c In Range("A2:A" & ActiveCell.SpecialCells(xlCellTypeLastCell).Row)
i = i + 1
j = j + 1
If c.Value <> c.Offset(1, 0).Value Then
Range("A2").Offset(j - i, 2).Value = i
i = 0
End If
Next c
End Sub
This can be done without VBA, just with a formula. In the Calculate column try
=IF(A2<>A1,COUNTIF(A:A,A2)
starting in row 2 and copy down.
This assumes that the data is sorted by the ID column and that there are no blank rows in the data. See attached sample file.
cheers, teylyn
