    Select the total best score to summarize ?

    Hello !

    I have two columns and two list-boxes.
    You can select in each list-box players which appear in each columns from the table.
    Automatically below it should appear the Total best scores from the 3rd column from the table, named Best Scores.
    First I want to know how to do this and second I want to know how you could select one player vs multiple players at the same time and automatically summarize their best scores against this single player.

    Thank you so much !

    PS: Please check the file added as attachment to see what I did.

    Hi

    Try

    =SUMIFS(Table1[Best score];Table1[PLAYER 1];D19;Table1[PLAYER 2];F19)

    Change the semi-colons with comma, if you have to do this.

    Is this, works for you?

    It works but only for the first step of my problem.
    1) I want to know how you could select one player vs multiple players at the same time and automatically summarize their best scores against this single player ? It seem with list-boxes it couldn't be possible...


    2) Also, How to avoid repetition in the list-boxes ? e.g on the first list-box "Merkovitz" appears too many times and I want it to be only a single time because I don't need it so many time, just one single time.

    Thank you so much !

    For your first query, i really don't know a way to choose many names fron the list at same time.

    For your second, dont use in data validation,columns D & F. Create 2 lists in other columns with uniques Names and use these list in your validation list.

    It is not really compulsory to use a list-box. You can use any type of control or any kind of method you want but the purpose is only one: choose multiple players at the same time. Do you know any other possibility ? Maybe another table with the players or any kind of control, it doesn't matter ?...

    So, take a look to the example.

    You can choose one player from the first list against 1 or 2 or 3 from the second one..

    Ok, but this is a simple example but what if you must choose 20 or 30 players from 200 or 300 available ?
    Any other method ?
    Buttons or multiple check boxes, maybe ?

    Thank you !

    Looking at your workbook and reading your post, I have no idea what you want to do or how you want to do it.
