Hi everyone, im new here. what i am trying to do is organize a spreadsheet to track scores of competitors. its fairly simple, im just missing something. simply put, i will have rows A and B. in row A i will enter the competitors score for that round. In row B i would like to assign a place value ie.1,2,3,4... Is there a way to do this automatically based off the information in row A? seperately, i have seen it all in one row before but i dont know how they did it. basically it was all in row A with the place outside the parenthesis and the score inside the parenthesis, ie, 1(39), 2(44), 3(47). if that is possible i would prefer it. im fairly competent in excel and understand most of the language. any help will be greatly appreciated. thanks in advance.
