Hi,

I want to be able to rank John for each Subject i.e English 3rd, Maths 3rd, Science 4th, Music 4th, History 1st.

I've looked at Rank, but can't use this. is there a formula that I can use and copy across Horzontally?

John's Rank 0f 6

Solution
You can copy down, and across with this: =RANK(B2;B$2:B$7)

Thanks Kokosek, ebea. This is working for me now. It took me a few mins to workout that the COLUMNS function was just an efficient way of giving me the correct column number, but got it now.

Just noticed ebea that you joined 6 days before me in 2008. :)
