I have tried to replicate what you are seeing in EXCEL 2007 and have put up a
file for you at:-

http://www.pierrefondes.com/

It is item number 46 towards the top of my home page (called RANK & Filter).

In the above Workbook if I click on the filter button in cell F7 and select
Sort Smallest to Largest result is:-

CBA 1.00% 1
ANZ 2.00% 2
AMP 3.00% 3
ABL 4.00% 4
ING 5.00% 5

This appears to be correct.

If my comments have helped please hit Yes.

Thanks.

Have spread sheet with list of percentages - adjacant column displays numeric
ranking of these percentages - when i filter the percentage column (eg sort
ascending) the formulas (cells that are being ranked) and hence the numeric
ranking are changing - each row is ranking different cells within the same
column.
eg.
A B C
1 Rank
2 ABL 4% 4 (rank by cells C2-C6)
3 ING 5% 5 (rank by cells C2-C6)
4 CBA 1% 1 (rank by cells C2-C6)
5 AMP 3% 3 (rank by cells C2-C6)
6 ANZ 2% 2 (rank by cells C2-C6)

after sort ascending
