easy way to change a formula
 

I have 7 people in cells F2 to F8. Here's the formula:

=IF(ROWS(C$2:C2)<=$B$2,INDEX(*$F$2:$F$8*,SMALL(IF( COUNTIF(INDIRECT("'"&*$F$2:$F$8*&"'!B2"),""&$A$2) ,IF(COUNTIF(INDIRECT("'"&*$F$2:$F$8*&"'!B2"),"<="& $A$3),ROW(*$F$2:$F$8*)-ROW($F$2)+1)),ROWS($C$2:C2))),"")

The range: *$F$2:$F$8* -- is in the formula 4 times and I am using this
formula 365 times for a full year. What if I include 1,2,3 more people,
the range would then need to be extended to F9,F10,F11.

Is there an easy way to change each formula, or do I have to go through
365 formulas and change each one?

Thanks for the help. I really do appreciate it.

easy way to change a formula
 

Look in HELP for the INDIRECT() function.
Even better: use a Defined Name (InsertNameDefine)
