Declare a variable and add an incremental value

harry1848_0-1666367178299.png

 

I am trying to replace a duplicate value with "duplicate value" +Y

Where Y = X + 1 for all (x=0 to total number of rows in the column)

 

The goal is to create uniqueness for any cell  that contains "duplicate value" by adding an incremental thing to the end of "duplicate value"

Hi @harry1848 ,
not sure I got your requirement right, but would adding an index-column work?
