Default RANK ....Grrrrr

For the life of me, I can't understand why this is happening ..... Using
Excel 2007 on XP.

I have a series of gymnastics results. Sometimes an equal score will
produce a tied rank, and sometimes, for some reason, it will produce separate
rankings .... Weird!! Sample pasted below - all these results are produced
by the formula "=RANK(P22,$P$22:$P$39,0)" (obviously the P22 changes on each
row!).

Please note placings 7 and 8, and 11, and 14!!?? I would like to end up
with all eual scores producing a tied rank! I suspect there will be a simple
answer, and i thank you in advance!!
