    RANK - Breaking Ties

    Very simple stuff for you...but I cant figure it out yet.....

    I have 100 people in a list and they are Ranked (I have used the Rank formula) as per the Number of People that report to them. Wherever there's a tie, it is skipping for next number, e.g.

    Rank 1
    Rank 1
    Rank 3

    the above is if the top 2 positions are tied. I need

    Rank 1
    Rank 1
    Rank 2

    How do I get this? I am using only One Parameter to calculate Rank. Please help !!
