Previously, I didn’t work much with Excel, but now they installed a new program and had to delve into it more carefully. The paradox is that I was never able to figure out this program! I do everything step by step, but I still haven’t achieved the result! Help.

Jag håller på och ska anordna ett VM tips. Får dock ett problem när jag ska rangordna tabellen.

Jag har gjort alla steg enligt ovan.

1. Innan ngn match är spelad har alla ranking 1 och då står lag 2-4 som #SAKNAS!.

2. När två lag hamnar på samma ranking där lag 1 vinner med 3-1 och lag 3 vinner med 4-3. Då får de samma rankingpoäng och den ena står som #SAKNAS!
