Suppose I have a table with a collection of "Top Ten" rankings for something. For example, suppose I have rankings from five "sources" for the Top Ten Ethnic Cooking. For simplicity, I'll show the top 5 here:
Rank
Source A
Source B
Source C
[Code]....
I'd like a way to calculate some sort of average ranking. I have two problems: (1) I don't know what the formula should be and (2) I don't know how to implement it in Excel.
I have been struggling to convert an array of weekly data rankings into monthly rankings using the closest date to month end and cant seem to find a way. see below

I have a ss that has item descriptions, quantities and pricing.
Item descriptions are identified by a letter (a, b, c, etc) and in cells C20:c32. These are selected by drop down box. Item quantities are in cells E20:E32.
I want to evaluate cells C20:C32 and determine what letter is chosen. If A is selected in any cell C20:c32 I want to count the quantities for A in cells E20:E32. I can't quite figure out how to do this.
When using watch window to watch a formula that has multiple formula's in it, is there a way to see the result of 1 formula within the big formula?
E.g. say you have:
= SUMIF(A1:A11,"207",B1:B11)/COUNTIF(A1:A11,"207")
And you put a watch on that, but in watch window it shows the result of the whole formula, say if you want to watch only the SUMIF part?
Im using Excel 2003 by the way.
I have more issues with this spreadsheet, which is beginning to drive me bonkers. Its a rank issue, with a few problems, questions:
Looking at the second table on the page, I want to rank the data for all colums except for column I in a descending fashion. IE - Highest to lowest. But column I needs to be ranked lowest to highest. I think I did this correctly, but I could be wrong.
Is it possable for the rankings to record equals? IE, the TO column has that, but in REB there should be another tie (9th and 10th) but there is not.
Further to this, the third table should have I28, and E35 listed as Ties. How do I do this for the entire table?
i have a list of names in column A and a corresponding score for each name in column S.
on a stats sheet B10:B15 was trying to make a top 5 list using =LARGE(Week1!S15:S46,1) ... with Large i am able to get my top 5 from the week1 sheet but how can i assign the corresponding top5 persons from column A15:A45 in week1 to the stats sheet in column A10:A15
I have ranked the times of races for 30 participants. The results are in a
column. I want to display the points given in the next column. The only
points given are for 1st through 6th place. 1st=6pts, 2nd=5pts, 3rd=4pts,
4th=3pts, 5th=2pts, 6th=1pt, 7th place through 30th place =0. Times,
therefore ranks, will change with each race, so this information needs to be
in every cell in that column.
NAME TIME RANK PTS
Joe 12.05 2 5
Mary 13.00 3 4
Sue 10.57 1 6
Sam 15.04 8 0
I figured out the rank formula, but I can't figure out how to assign the
points.
I have a worksheet set up as a draw sheet for a tournament. I have a set of rankings showing all points collated from last tournament. What i want to do is set up a formula/macro so that a cell containing a player eg. the winner will be found on the ranking list and the points won will be added to the next cell on the ranking list.

I am building a country ranking model which ranks several different macroeconomic indicators and applies a weighting to each of the indicators. I have an overall ranking column which is an average of all the ranks. The problem is whenever I change any of the individual indicator's weighting it obviously affects the country's overall ranking. Is there a way that the model can automatically "re-sort" the overall rankings without me having to manually click on the sort by smallest to largest filter each time?
PS I'm using Excel 2007.
I'm creating report from a pivot table that has two data sources from two different work sheets. I noticed that you can use two data sources if you use the pivot table wizard which I tried but it can't combine the data. So I tried power pivot the same thing happened there - I will have all the column names but it will only show values from one report and if it shows values from other reports it will show the same value in all rows.
So I realized I need to create relationships which I did with a Concatenate of the dates. But still no luck.
i have to compare two financial reports from two different sources each and it should derive the same result.
I am still working on it and only focus on Column C & D. However, i have come across some problems and hope that these milestones can be cleared so that i can move on to another step to achieve my goal.
So, my current problem is
1) #N/A (eg Cell D9 & D32) will be resulted when hlookup function is used. Since the workbook 'CB_Consol_2009' does not have the same name appear, how can i make the answer become '-' instead of #N/A when hlookup function is being used?
2) Double counting. The same name appears more than one time (eg CURRENT ACCOUNTS-RET_ (01#0505_01) and as such, its figures also calculating more than once. Is there a way to calculate the figure only once so that i come out with the correct grand total?
As my objective is to compare two financial reports results (which should be the same), this is the table i can think of. If anyone here have any constructive comment on my current format.

Can anyone explain how to name a chart? I've been accessing charts in my VBA scripts using chart names, e.g. "Chart 4". I've been determining the chart name by recording a macro and selecting the charts. But, is there a way to either:
1- change the name of a chart (as you would name a pivot table)
2- determine the name without having to select the chart in a recorded macro
3- reference multiple charts from the same worksheet without using their names
1. I would like to be able to select a month from a drop down ( cell C4), and for Column B ('Cumulative Performance') to reflect the sum for each name between Jan and the month selected.
2. In Column D I would like to rank the relative position of the sum total; such that if I selected 'Dec', John would display '13' in D7, Anne '3' etc.
3. In Column E I would like to show by way of a coloured arrow (or even a smilie icon) the relative change in ranking of the sum totals evaluated for my chosen month with those calculated up until the previous month (e.g. for Anne, if I select June, the Jan to June total is 36 (rank 2 in the June total's), the May to Jan total for Anne is 32 (rank 1), therefore her relative rank movement between the June and May cumulatives moves down and cell E8 would show a red-down arrow (amber horizontal for no change and green up-arrow for an improvement in rank).

I have put together a sort of hire chart for a charity that hires out scooters/wheelchairs.
All the formulas were done and then they said that they sometimes hire out extra equipment with the chairs as well.
I have created an 'extras' column but I'm having nightmares trying to integrate it into the current formula.
I have just changed the first 3 rows to experiment with.
There is a basic cost of £2 per week or part of a week, that price is regulated from the master page.
Column P calculates the rate from the weeks/days and uses the master page as the source of costing.
I have created a column 'C' for the extras and tried to integrate it into the already complicated formula.
Unfortunately, although it seems to work, it won't work if the cost is lower than £9. At that point, it doesn't matter what I do in column C, it just ignores column C
When it gets to £12 it seems to take notice of column C, very strange.

I want to take the values in Column U, attach the names in Column A, and rank from Highest to Lowest
Then I want to do the same with Column V/Column A
And then again with Column W/Column A
And then create 3 tables within the document that display the top 5 in each category.
It's already done, but by hand. Is there a way to automatically set this up?

I am working on a workbook that contains drop-downs in various cells. The source for these drop downs are several Named Ranges on a tab named 'Drop Downs'.
I am locking the whole spreadsheet down so that people are not messing with the format, etc. (which is the current problem). So I don't allow people to add/delete rows, etc.
I am trying to think of a good interface to allow users to modify the entries in each drop down list (i.e. they may need to add a person to the "Resources" Range which feeds into a drop-down box elsewhere).
So, people should be able to add/delete items. I was thinking I would put a little 'X' next to each entry, such that when pressed - it would delete the corresponding entry. (Using the Assign Macro on a Text Box). However, I have to assign each 'X' a method to call - and I can't pass in an argument - so if I assign them all the same macro name - I won't be able to figure out which one was pushed. And the number of 'X' will be dynamic, so I can't hard code a bunch of functions. I don't really have a good idea for allowing additions yet (other than a button that prompts for the name and then adds it in).
I guess I could just use a Form that allows editing of the data (that would be easy and powerful to do), but I don't really want to do that - I want it to be editable within the excel spreadsheet itself.
I do not know what function will do what I need. I am compiling info from different sources to make a mailing list. Basically it boils down to the following. Sheet 1 has Names and Parcel Numbers, sheet 2 has Parcel Numbers and Addresses. I am trying to combine it in a way that I have names and addresses on the same sheet.

Is it possible to use a today or now function in an sql query to an external datasource in excel 2007? I have an excel 2007 spreadsheet, that I have linked to our financial database (MySql) using the database wizard. I can get the tables to display in excel no problem. One table shows how much staff have billed in each invoice period. I would like to create a query in excel, so that when this table displays in excel it shows how much each staff member has billed for the current invoice period, as opposed to all of them.
We weren't sure how to do this, so we decided to do a query to pull out the current invoice period, then we could combine this pivot table with the one for the amount billed table to give a table showing the amount each staff member has billed in the current invoice period (do this bit in excel).
The problem is we can't seem to make the query to pull out the current invoice period work. We have tried the query below, and all the variations of it that we can think of
SELECT invoice_period FROM tbl_invoice_periods WHERE STR_TO_DATE('" & NOW() & "', '%d/%m/%Y') BETWEEN start_date AND end_date;
We have also tried referencing a cell which shows the current date, but we cannot get this to work either (we may have made a mistake in the query here, we are not entirely sure how to reference an individual cell). The only way we have been able to get it to work is if you enter the current date directly into the query, but obviously this means it's no longer automated, which isn't a solution.
The main file was linked to other files. Instead of using the "edit links" dialogue box provided by Excel, I wish to use a list box. This list box will show all the files that the main file is linked to.
The user will have the the option to single select or multiple select the files.
Upon clicking "ok" it will "open and close" the selected files, thus updating the main file. (it should also remove the update links dialogue box of the source files if they had it, it will be a hassle for the user to click on the "don't update" for every linked file that is open)
I know the update links in Excel is able to do it but the links sometimes will result in errors, beside it doesn't offer multiple selections.
Upon opening after "Enable" is selected the workbook attempts to locate several nonexistent pieces of data, either internet based files or network based files. Requested data appears to be about 11 years old and would not be applicable it located.
Edit Links shows the location of the requested files, i.e., E:filename but does not show the location within the document that causes this request. A search for "E:" does not locate text in any worksheets.
The question is how to delete or turn off this problem which slows opening, saving, and recalculation of a large multiple worksheet workbook.
I'm trying to create a pivot in 2010, which gathers a cumulative amount from data sources within two different worksheets.
