Hello - newbie poster here.
I've been scouring this group during my current project and found much
useful information - thanks to all. However I've come to a halt and
need to ask for help on a specific question.
I have a spreadsheet working out the Rugby Zurich Premiership scores
(LOTS of formulae entering!). The ultimate is to display an
automatically calculating league table from the datasheet. I've used
the LARGE function to order the points for each team and VLOOKUP to
pull in the corresponding team name, games won, lost, drawn, points
for and against and the goal difference. My problem is that two teams
have the same points and Excel returns the same team name and details
twice rather than first one team then the other. I've read and
re-read info on MATCH, INDEX, IF and pivot tables, none of which make
any sense (maybe I've been staring at it too long!).
I'm sure there's a way to ask Excel to look at another column of
criteria (games won, then goal difference) if the Pts are the same and
order the two teams accordingly, but the answer is eluding me.
Does anyone have any ideas or can point me to the correct command to
use please?
Thanks for any help in advance.
