[Nicholas1]

Hi

Can anyone help me with a formula to tranform a set of rankings into tertiles (1-3).

So I guess the formula would have to
1) looks up the max value in row 2 then divide 3 = Y
Then in A2
2) if A2 is <= Y then give a value of 3
3) if A2 is > Y, but <= Yx2 then give a value of 2
4) if A2 is > Yx2 but <= Yx3 then give a value of 1

Thanks in advance
