Adding Number Column based on the Row Value for huge Data Sets
Hi Anonymous

First you add an index column to your table and then another column that checks if the text starts with "loop". If so, then return the index-column if not, return null. Then fill down that new column and you have your groups. If you need a sequential numbering without gaps, check the 2nd sample in that blogpost how to proceed.

This is a way better solution than mine! Thanks!
