I need a formula, please.

Michelle

I am working on a excel project that requires a ranking
system. What I'm tyring to figure out is... When I enter
new percents into a cell, I need the information to carry
over to another cell, and if it's possible carry over to
another workbook.

Here's the Idea..
August September Over all Ranking
Billy-100% Billy- Billy-
Dan-96% Dan- Dan-
Casey-38% Casey- Casey-

So now when the end of September information comes in, I
need to be able to put in the cell, and have it add to the
August information in the over all ranking area. Does
this make since? I fell like I'm rambling.
If anybody has any infromation on this, please help!
Thanks for your time!

Hi
not really sure what you're trying to achieve. You may provide some
more information :)

Probably the simplest way might be to add a column at the end of the list
that does the summing, and then reference that column in the Rank() formula.

Michelle,

This is a very basic use of Excel.

Structure your worksheet to see data, columns would be :
col A B C D.....
Z
1 Person August September etc
Overall
2 Billy 100%
3 Dan 96%
4 Casey 38%

So, you then add your data in each month's column.

now depending on what your overall ranking is, let's assume it is an average
in cell Z2 enter the formula =AVERAGE(B2:Y2), and this will average the
cells with data in them
