    Excel puts ranked column of cells in wrong order used =MATCH(LARGE(D:D,ROW()),D:D,FALSE)

    Attached is book 2.

    Column D should read:

    01
    04
    05
    03
    02

    but instead it reads:

    01
    05
    04
    02
    03

    Obviously I have done something wrong.

    Thank you in advance for your assistance in correcting my error,
    Leonard

    Change your formula in C1 to this:

    =IF(C1="","",(RANK(C1,$C$1:$C$15,1)))

    then copy down. Note there is an optional 3rd parameter for the RANK function, which controls whether you want increasing or decreasing rank.

    Hope this helps.
