    Rank formula not woking

    Hi All,

    I have an issue with Rank. I believe it has something to do with a format, but I cannot figure out what...

    The formula worked in column H in my file, but not in column N. I have attached a sample. What am I missing?

    Cheers,

    The data in G is values, but the data in M is text - you cannot rank text
    1. Use code tags for VBA. [code] Your Code [/code] (or use the # button)
    2. If your question is resolved, mark it SOLVED using the thread tools
    3. Click on the star if you think someone helped you

    I gathered that, hence why I included Value () in my Rank formula's. Obviously it's re the Ranges that are not working.

    Obviously a helper column is needed.

    Thanks Ford.
