    i want excel to compare the Current winning % with the previous winning % for each player

    Hey guys!

    I have an excel to register the % of victories for each player in a team. As each player plays more games, i want excel to compare the Current winning % with the previous winning percentage for each player, individually. So, for example:

    Player X has played 9 games and has won 3. Current win % =33.3%. He player another game and wins it. Now the win % is 40%. I want an upward pointing arrow to show that the win % has increased, side pointing for no change and downward for a decrease in the win %.

    Thanks in advance!

    The drawback with your approach is that you do not know what the previous %age would have been. If player 3 plays another game and wins it, you will change the 10 in B4 to 11 and the 6 in C4 to 7, giving a current percentage of 64%. However, you do not know at that point what his previous result was because you have overwritten it.

    A layout that would facilitate this would be to have the result of each game in a separate column, maybe using W for win and L for Lost (and maybe also D for Draw if applicable), then you can count the number of non-blank cells to get the number of games, and also count the number of W's to get the number of wins. You can also count up to the previous column to get the previous win rate.

    Hope this helps.

    Pete
