For whatever reason I am unable to post a new question. While I wait to hear
back from MS I thought I would try to post my newest problem this way with
hopes Dr. Valko or someone in the know gets wind of it.
OK, Here Goes!
I have a 17 sheet workbook (1 for each NFL game week) that contains on each
the names of guys/gals from here on known as player(s). Who must, each week,
choose 1 NFL team, from that weeks slate of NFL games, that they (the player)
thinks’ will win their perspective contest (NFL game) by the largest “Margin
Of Victoryâ€.
Sounds simple enough right? What makes it tricky, and the problem I
present, is that each NFL team can be used only once for each player in their
17 weeks worth of choices. I have, VLOOKUP for points assessed (negative
points should the chosen team loose) and awarded, (how many points their team
wins by) ranks and totals for the week and the to date tally, and a dropdown
with all 32 NFL teams next to each players name on all 17 sheets.
I need to make the dropdown boxes eliminate the chosen NFL team so that the
same NFL team is not available for that player in the following weeks. I can
make it happen, thanks to Contextures, if each player had his own sheet but
that would create a nightmare when mailing out results. I’d have to mail, by
the end of the NFL season, 17 sheets to 26 different players. Not an option.
Can anyone help with this problem or tell me, with absolute certainty; it
can’t be done on my XP Pro, Excel 2003 Combination.
Thanks in Advance,
