Excel Facts

Is there a shortcut key for strikethrough?
Ctrl+S is used for Save. Ctrl+5 is used for Strikethrough. Why Ctrl+5? When you use hashmarks to count |||| is 4, strike through to mean 5.
Try this, you will probably need to enter it with CSE (CTRL-SHFT-ENTER):
Excel Formula:
=SUM(--(B6:B24&B7:B25="-31"))

Not really sure what this gets you with the way you have the headers for row and column set up. But I guess it give you trends or something.

Sorry, but I like to know 1 more thing here.
So now it is looking to the next cell.
What if I want to know let's say, the max of the following winning streak before a new loss occurs?
