How to rank the date in Excel without duplicates

Question

Good Morning.

I have a question about ranking date in excel, please see the image below, in the rank column,

I used formula:

=RANK($A3,$A:$         


        

Answer 1

If you sort your data by date all you need to do is write number 1 in C2 and use formula from C3 till end:

=IF(A3=A2,C2,C2+1)
