Nesting if/or/and
 

I am counting scores to determine what place they are in. If the number
equals someone else's score then I want the result to read "Tie" if the
number is not a duplicate I would like it to read 1, 2, 3, & so on. However,
because my formula is to add 1 to A7, if A7 is a tie I get an error. Does
anyone have a suggestion (see my formula below):
=IF(OR(I8=$I$7,I8=$I$9,I8=$I$10,I8=$I$11,I8=$I$12, I8=$I$13,I8=$I$14,I8=I$15,I8=I$16,I8=I$17,I8=I$18, I8=$I$19,I8=$I$20,I8=$I$21,I8=$I$22,I8=$I$23,I8=$I $24,I8=$I$25,I8=$I$26,I8=$I$27,I8=$I$28,I8=$I$29,I 8=$I$30,I8=$I$31,I8=$I$32,I8=$I$33,I8=$I$34,I8=$I$ 35,I8=$I$36,I8=$I$37),"TIE",A7+1)

Hi,
Not sure if I fully understand, but here's a suggestion -
I think I'd use COUNTIF to determine the ties. eg:
=IF(COUNTIF(I7:I37,I8)1,"Tie","")
Then use RANK to determine the place, eg:
=RANK(I8,I7:I37)
Combination would be:
=IF(COUNTIF(I7:I37,I8)1,"Tie",RANK(I8,I7:I37))
Is this close to what you're after?
Regards - Dave.

To do exactly as stated:
=IF(COUNTIF($I$7:$I$37,I8)=1,RANK(I8,$I$7:$I$37)," Tie")

If you want to get a little fancier, you could try:

=IF(COUNTIF($I$7:$I$37,I8)=1,RANK(I8,$I$7:$I$37)," Tie - "&RANK(I8,$I$7:$I$37))

Both formulas you can copy up to cell J7, all the way down to J37.

FYI, my solution means you do not need to put them in order any more, or to
add the A7+1, and so forth.

Thanks! I'm soooo glad I came here I've been working on this for days
