I have a spreadsheet for the World Cup, with the each game's teams in Col. F and Col. J and their scores in Cols K-N. In Col. P all teams are listed in alphabetical order. Alongside that column I want to show just the opposing team if the game has not yet played, or if it has played "W v", "Dr v" or "L v" and the opposing team.

My formula works perfectly if the alphabetical team is in Col. F, but I get #NA if the alphabetical team is in Col. J. I cannot figure out why the formula works for teams in Col. F but not for teams in Col. J. The mini sheet is:

Thanks so much, Peter. The short formula does the job perfectly, so I did not try your long adaptation of mine. You are right about not needing to use Ctrl+Shift+Enter with the short formula. Your ability with Excel is truly amazing (at least to me) to come up with such an elegant formula involving IF, ISERROR, VLOOKUP, CHOOSE, SIGN, INDEX, MATCH and COUNTIF. [I will now try to reply to smozgur re XL2BB.]

Excel Facts

Does the VLOOKUP table have to be sorted?
No! when you are using an exact match, the VLOOKUP table can be in any order. Best-selling items at the top is actually the best.
@markly: It could be something related to the named range(s) in the workbook. Could you please retry by unchecking the Named Ranges option in the Additional Info section?

If it works when you unchecked the option then it means XL2BB can't work with the named range(s) in your workbook. I need to see the workbook to be able to give more information in this case.

If it doesn't work (or there is no named range in the workbook), then I can try to find out if it is related to Excel version or actually what it is, but I'll still need the workbook. Perhaps you could upload it somewhere that I can download and test?
Hi smozgur
You have kindly offered to try to solve the XL2BB problem that prevented me creating a Mini Sheet. For that you need my workbook. How can I send it to you when I can upload only images via the forum? Do you have an email address that I can send the workbook to, or is there some other way?

Thanks for the sample workbook, @markly.

I tested it on Excel 2010/Windows 7, and I can get the mini-sheet without problems. I selected the whole range (except below row 52 because it exceeds the limit that could be posted on the forum with XL2BB), and it generated the mini-sheet code as shown below.

Does XL2BB still fail if you open a brand new workbook, enter something simple into a small range and create a mini-sheet by selecting that range? I believe it should because I don't think this is related to the workbook. It could be something related to your Excel installation, or even Windows, I really can't tell what it is. I'm afraid I am stuck at this point since I can't reproduce the same behavior by using the exact same workbook.

I have just created this Mini Sheet okay:
Book1
ABC
1ABC
2GreenBlueRed
3PinkYellowOrange
4
5
6
Sheet1

so immediately tried again with C1:Q35 of the World Cup workbook but again got the error message (see image).
No point in spending any more time on the problem, so thanks very much for looking into it.
Kind regards
Mark
