I recently decided to try my hand at something new with Excel. Given that I tend to organise quite a few video game tournaments of one kind or another, it seemed natural to try and set a league table up with Excel 2013.
I have managed pretty much to do it but I am struggling with the final piece of the puzzle in my soccer league table after filling in some random national team names and some random results.
My spreadsheet has 3 separate worksheets.
One is a Fixtures/Results sheet where it contains (surprise!) the matches to be played and scores of completed matches.
A Dummy Table sheet which pulls the data from the fixtures table and calculates the rankings for the teams.
And finally the standings table which pulls the data from the Dummy Table so that we can have a nice and easy to read ranked table.
I have managed to get the Standings table to fill in the name of the team for the appropriate rank easily enough. My issue arises when trying to use vlookup to fill in the details (games played, win, penalty wins etx)
I know Im missing something REALLY obvious here but no matter what I do I get stuck with NA.
Still I'm rather proud of what ive managed to do. Its not bad for someone who only ever used the SUM command before!
Attached is the sheet in question!
