So my horse racing ratings are coming along, theyre finding winners and value runners.


My database table is a large file. In it, I want to find the peak return, average return (they're both done), plus the returns for each of the last 10 returns for each horse.

The table will have a column for each date from 2020/09/23 to as far as it will take me.

The problem is horses aren't running every day, so finding the returns for the last start to the 10th last isn't returning a value because the vLookups I'm using are returning a "#N/A" value if the horse didn't race that day.

The formula I'm using to find the last result is: =IFERROR(INDEX('All Horse Ratings.xlsx'!Allhorses[@[20200923]:[20201106]],1,COUNTA($Q2:$BI2)),"") (I change this in a few cells to get the last 10 results)
The formula I'm using to get the ratings into my database is: =IFNA(VLOOKUP($A2,INDIRECT("[ratings.xlsx]"&Allhorses[[#Headers],[20200923]]&"!$A:$C"),2,0),"")

What do I do to because I'm only getting errors or false returns.

Excel Facts

Copy formula down without changing references
If you have =SUM(F2:F49) in F50; type Alt+' in F51 to copy =SUM(F2:F49) to F51, leaving the formula in edit mode. Change SUM to COUNT.
No, you would need
Excel Formula:
=IFERROR(INDEX($Q$1:$BK$1,AGGREGATE(14,6,(COLUMN($Q$1:$BK$1)-COLUMN($Q$1)+1)/($Q2:$BK2<>""),2)),"")
