Creating a table based on rank
 

Hi,

I have a list of 13 names in one column and in the adjacent column a
score for each one. Based on this score I have ranked them 1-13 in
another column.

On a different worksheet I have a column with 1-13 listed in decending
order. I would like to populate the column adjacent to this with the
name that corresponds to the same rank on the other spreadsheet. A
small example as follows:

Spreadsheet 1:

Rank Name Score
2 Apple 13
4 Orange 2
1 Grape 15
3 Pear 10

Spreadsheet 2 (should look like this):-

Rank Name
1 Grape
2 Apple
3 Pear
4 Orange

Many thanks in advance if any of you can help.

Regards,

GW

A vlookup should work.
=vlookup(a1, sheet1!a1:b13, 2, false)
