Excel 2003 - Find records
I do have a Golf Table. Listed in columns are Members (Col A); Sex (Col B);
Results in Day1....Day 5 in Col C...G. I'd like to find the best and second best man and woman for each day. How can I accomplish this??? Thanks for the reply Klaus |

Hi!
What about the possibility of ties? Do you want them included? Biff "Klaus" wrote in message ... I do have a Golf Table.

Ok.
Now, there are a couple of ways to do this: 1. use conditional formatting to highlight the applicable scores 2. make a list of the best and second best players #1 is the easiest. #2 will take some time (depending on how many players typically "tie" and trying to setup a nice method for display) Biff "Klaus" wrote in message ...

I'm looking for a formula to retrieve the names....
Can anybody help?? e.g. If(Col B="M',Large(Day1,1),"") or similar... Thanks Klaus "Biff" wrote in message ... Ok.

Oh, if only it was that easy! <g Having to account for possible ties really makes things much more complicated. Hmmm .... Large(Day1,1) The best golf scores are the lowest scores so wouldn't you want Small(Day1,1) ? That's what I based my solution on, the lowest score. Anyhow..... Assume your table is in the range A1:G10. A1:G1 are column headers. First, you have to extract the LOWEST score than the next LOWEST score for the men than the women. I did it like this: *ALL* of the formulas needed to do this are array formulas. They need to be entered with the key combo of CTRL,SHIFT,ENTER. B12 = lowest Male C12 =MIN(IF(B2:B10="m",IF(C2:C100,C2:C10))) B13 = 2nd lowest Male C13 =MIN(IF(B2:B10="m",IF(C2:C10C12,C2:C10))) B15 = lowest Female C15 =MIN(IF(B2:B10="f",IF(C2:C100,C2:C10))) B16 = 2nd lowest Female C16 =MIN(IF(B2:B10="f",IF(C2:C10C15,C2:C10))) Now, to extract the players names: lowest Male (and ties) =IF(ISERROR(SMALL(IF(B$2:B$10="m",IF(ISNUMBER(C$2: C$10),IF(C$2:C$10=C$12,ROW($1:$9)))),ROW(1:1))),"" ,INDEX(A$2:A$10,SMALL(IF(B$2:B$10="m",IF(ISNUMBER( C$2:C$10),IF(C$2:C$10=C$12,ROW($1:$9)))),ROW(1:1)) )) Copy down as needed to cover the number of possible ties. Could that be 5, 10 ? 2nd lowest Male (and ties) =IF(ISERROR(SMALL(IF(B$2:B$10="m",IF(ISNUMBER(C$2: C$10),IF(C$2:C$10=C$13,ROW($1:$9)))),ROW(1:1))),"" ,INDEX(A$2:A$10,SMALL(IF(B$2:B$10="m",IF(ISNUMBER( C$2:C$10),IF(C$2:C$10=C$13,ROW($1:$9)))),ROW(1:1)) )) Again, copy down to cover any possible ties. lowest Female (and ties) =IF(ISERROR(SMALL(IF(B$2:B$10="f",IF(ISNUMBER(C$2: C$10),IF(C$2:C$10=C$15,ROW($1:$9)))),ROW(1:1))),"" ,INDEX(A$2:A$10,SMALL(IF(B$2:B$10="f",IF(ISNUMBER( C$2:C$10),IF(C$2:C$10=C$15,ROW($1:$9)))),ROW(1:1)) )) Copy down to cover any possible ties. 2nd lowest Female (and ties) =IF(ISERROR(SMALL(IF(B$2:B$10="f",IF(ISNUMBER(C$2: C$10),IF(C$2:C$10=C$16,ROW($1:$9)))),ROW(1:1))),"" ,INDEX(A$2:A$10,SMALL(IF(B$2:B$10="f",IF(ISNUMBER( C$2:C$10),IF(C$2:C$10=C$16,ROW($1:$9)))),ROW(1:1)) )) Copy down to cover any possible ties. See, I told you CF was much easier! Or, use a pivot table! Biff "Klaus" wrote in message ... I'm looking for a formula to retrieve the names....
