Formlua Error!

Hey guys need help on this formula as I keep getting a #REF! Error that won't
list what is required from cell AN15. The formulas below are as follow.

Cell C7
=IF(ROWS($1:1)<=COUNTA(B$15:B$47),INDEX(B$15:B$47,MATCH(LARGE(AM$15:AM$47-ROW(AM$15:AM$47)/10^10,ROWS($1:1)),AM$15:AM$47-ROW(AM$15:AM$47)/10^10,0)),"")

Cell E7
=IF(C7="","",INDEX(AM$15:AM$47,MATCH(C7,B$15:B$47,0)))

Cell AM15
=COUNTIF(D15:AK15,"√")+COUNTIF(D15:AK15,"P")*0.5&" -
"&COUNTIF(D15:AK15,"X*")+COUNTIF(D15:AK15,"P")*0.5

The error is in the AM15 cell formula because if I use just a normal number
in that area it works correctly.

Much appreciated!
 
AM15 as defined works OK for me : what do you mean "if I use a normal number"
.... instead of what?

And AN15 isn't mentioned anywhere .. what's in it?
 
Sorry it's AM15 not AN15 nothing to do with AN cell at all.

In Cell C7 it should list the person name with the top record based on cell
AM15 : AM47
instead I get an error #value from cell AM15.. If I remove the formula and
just add numbers the #value error is removed and shows the person who the top
winner.

The formula in cell AM15: AM47 shows up as 1.5 - 1.5 as a test but comes up
as an error #value in cell C7 & E7

C7 is for the name
E7 should list the record

Hope this helps

The formula in AM15 returns a TEXT string.

When the other formula tries to calculare this expression:

AM$15:AM$47-ROW(AM$15:AM$47)/10^10

That's what causes the error.

How would chnage it so this formula would work.
=COUNTIF(D15:AK15,"√")+COUNTIF(D15:AK15,"P")*0.5&" -
"&COUNTIF(D15:AK15,"X*")+COUNTIF(D15:AK15,"P")*0.5
 
You can't. You'd either have to split that formula into 2 cells or you'd
have to change the other formula but then you'd be getting into overly
complex monster formula territory. I told you that your file is really
"busy". Well, this is what I meant: You're making things overly complex
because of the design of your layout. You can't put the names in order on
the weekly sheets becuase it results in a circular reference. Look at how
big your file is already and you don't even have any data in it yet. How big
do you think it will be by the time you reach week 17? It may be unusable!

To be perfectly honest, I think you should start over and keep it simple.
Get rid of all those merged cells. Keep any formatting to a minimum and
don't format until you have all the formulas in place and the layout
finished. Keep the data in contiguous ranges.

Hey Buff

This isn't putting the names in order for each week this is placing names in
a leader board under the Killer picks based on the records same as the master
sheet has been done.

I didn't understand the comment of being “busy†LOL what is the average file
size considered suitable? As it stands right now it’s at 1.19 MB and almost
completed.

Thanks

My reply about putting the names in order on the weekly sheets was in
response to your email.

Yeah, but you don't have any data in it yet! And, the last I've seen of it,
you only have formulas up to week1 and its size at that point was .98 mb.
There's still 16 other sheets that need those same formulas.

Oh ok so it’s best I manually enter the names to save the file space got
it.....

All formulas have been entered throughout the 17 weeks and that's the reason
the file has reached 1.19 MB

The only formula that I need fixed is the following
=IF(D15="","",IF(D15='W1'!C$47,"√",IF('W1'!C$47="push","P","X")))
it shows a Push as a X. and not as a P then I'm done.

Thank You for your help!

It works OK for me. If on W1 I make Ind the fav, the spread is 14 and the
score is Ind 14 Dal 0, then the above formula resurns "P" as it should.

Hey Biff

I think there still a problem whatever the result is in the first column in
Cell C47 it puts the result for every cell no matter what team has been
chosen.

I have up load the file so you can see the example….

Take Care!

Oh, OK I see what you mean. I thought those picks would all be for the same
game but I see they're for *any* game.

There's a problem however. All those merged cells are messing up the ability
to create a formula for this. I don't understand what this is for: on sheet
W1 column E, E44:E47 are merged cells and have this formula in it:

=COUNTIF(D45,"?*")

D45 will only contain the score for the underdog. So what's this formula
for? Why are those cells merged?

Biff
 
WOW I see what you mean now by merged cells and useless formulas.

I have removed the formula in cell E, E44:E47 as it now required it was a
bad copy and paste on my behalf, my bad. I have also removed the merged cells
as well in week one and will do the same for the rest of the weeks.

I have uploaded the fix to the link below.

Now you should have no problems fixing the formula to show the correct result.

Again thank you for your help Biff you are the best.
 
Enter this array formula on the Killer sheet in cell E15:

=IF(D15="","",IF(ISNUMBER(MATCH(D15,'W1'!C$47:AK$47,0)),"?",IF(INDEX('W1'!C$47:AK$47,MATCH(1,--ISNUMBER(SEARCH(D15,'W1'!C$44:AK$44&'W1'!C$45:AK$45)),0))="Push","P","X")))

Copy down as needed.

Biff
 
Hey Biff

I gave what you have suggested a try and it’s not showing the correct result.

Example:
DAL, IND, NE, CAR should be all “Pâ€
And
CIN, NO should be all “Xâ€

Right now they are showing as #N/A with this formula.
I have uploaded an example again.

Thanks!
