i have a excel spreadsheet that is a leaderbourd

i would like to make it so that the position in points is calculated automaticaly i.e so the position of the highest scoring person is 1 then next 2 ect

so the points won are in row K 2-51 and the position would be in row L 2-51

if possible i would then like the spreadsheet to automaticaly put the competitors into order by position

is this possible
 

Excel Facts

VLOOKUP to Left?
Use =VLOOKUP(A2,CHOOSE({1,2},$Z$1:$Z$99,$Y$1:$Y$99),2,False) to lookup Y values to left of Z values.

In column L

=RANK(K2,$k$2:$k$51,0) and so on

Will return your position then just sort the entire range based on column L - you could record a macro to do this and if you want to get clever your could make teh macro run every time you change the spreadsheet (which will get very annoying!) - I think I would put the macro on a button!
