Hello All

At work we are running a world cup scores cokmpetition. Basically we have to predict all the scores for the group games. if you get the correct result ie "home" win, draw, "away" win then you get a point. If you get the correct score then you get points equal to the total goals scored in game plus th epoint for the correct result.

Now there will be a agood number of people etering 20 possibly more. Just lookign for an easy way of keeping track of scores each day, like a table.

I have bene playign around and just end up with messes anybody got any ideas?

ideally i would like the list of fixtures in order as they would be so that they can be updatyed each day quickly an dit will then check ita gaint everyone elses socres that would previously be input

in a manner i would think a table but it just becomes quite an odious task.

Any ideas would be appreciated, mind you maybe its just a tedious task i have to contend with :)

Excel tables to the web >> Excel Jeanie HTML 4

This is how i have been toying with so far

I had priginally thought of doing it that each person predictions gets its own sheet and then the main sheet will autlomatically add a list of all the sheet names. I then could return the total points so far in adjacent column.

The only problem was getting the scores in order of 1st 2ns 3rd etc as for some reason sort filter owuldnt work in thi sscenario

example:

HTML:
LEAGUE TABLE

 AB1NameScore4  5  6  7  8  9  10  11  12  13  14  15  
Spreadsheet FormulasCellFormulaA4=IF(ISERROR(INDEX(MID(SheetNames,FIND("]",SheetNames)+1,255),ROWS(A$1:A3))),"",(INDEX(MID(SheetNames,FIND("]",SheetNames)+1,255),ROWS(A$1:A3))))B4=IF(ISERROR(INDIRECT("'"&A4&"'!$F$1")),"",INDIRECT("'"&A4&"'!$F$1"))A5=IF(ISERROR(INDEX(MID(SheetNames,FIND("]",SheetNames)+1,255),ROWS(A$1:A4))),"",(INDEX(MID(SheetNames,FIND("]",SheetNames)+1,255),ROWS(A$1:A4))))B5=IF(ISERROR(INDIRECT("'"&A5&"'!$F$1")),"",INDIRECT("'"&A5&"'!$F$1"))A6=IF(ISERROR(INDEX(MID(SheetNames,FIND("]",SheetNames)+1,255),ROWS(A$1:A5))),"",(INDEX(MID(SheetNames,FIND("]",SheetNames)+1,255),ROWS(A$1:A5))))B6=IF(ISERROR(INDIRECT("'"&A6&"'!$F$1")),"",INDIRECT("'"&A6&"'!$F$1"))A7=IF(ISERROR(INDEX(MID(SheetNames,FIND("]",SheetNames)+1,255),ROWS(A$1:A6))),"",(INDEX(MID(SheetNames,FIND("]",SheetNames)+1,255),ROWS(A$1:A6))))B7=IF(ISERROR(INDIRECT("'"&A7&"'!$F$1")),"",INDIRECT("'"&A7&"'!$F$1"))A8=IF(ISERROR(INDEX(MID(SheetNames,FIND("]",SheetNames)+1,255),ROWS(A$1:A7))),"",(INDEX(MID(SheetNames,FIND("]",SheetNames)+1,255),ROWS(A$1:A7))))B8=IF(ISERROR(INDIRECT("'"&A8&"'!$F$1")),"",INDIRECT("'"&A8&"'!$F$1"))A9=IF(ISERROR(INDEX(MID(SheetNames,FIND("]",SheetNames)+1,255),ROWS(A$1:A8))),"",(INDEX(MID(SheetNames,FIND("]",SheetNames)+1,255),ROWS(A$1:A8))))B9=IF(ISERROR(INDIRECT("'"&A9&"'!$F$1")),"",INDIRECT("'"&A9&"'!$F$1"))B10=IF(ISERROR(INDIRECT("'"&A10&"'!$F$1")),"",INDIRECT("'"&A10&"'!$F$1"))B11=IF(ISERROR(INDIRECT("'"&A11&"'!$F$1")),"",INDIRECT("'"&A11&"'!$F$1"))B12=IF(ISERROR(INDIRECT("'"&A12&"'!$F$1")),"",INDIRECT("'"&A12&"'!$F$1"))B13=IF(ISERROR(INDIRECT("'"&A13&"'!$F$1")),"",INDIRECT("'"&A13&"'!$F$1"))B14=IF(ISERROR(INDIRECT("'"&A14&"'!$F$1")),"",INDIRECT("'"&A14&"'!$F$1"))B15=IF(ISERROR(INDIRECT("'"&A15&"'!$F$1")),"",INDIRECT("'"&A15&"'!$F$1"))
