Worksheet Rank / Lookup function

Hi

I have a spreadsheet which you can view here:

http://www.mediafire.com/?en2ywr1tjs8

If you go to the 'Gary Results' Tab, you will see that in cells C3:C5 it is
pulling 'Rhydian Roberts' through 3 times from the 'Gary Scores' Tab.
However, this is not what I intend to happen, as I would like Rhydian Roberts
to be in cell C3, Niki Evans in cell C4 and then Hope in cell C5, as they all
scored 10; with the rest following suit.

This used to work in Excel XP but I'm now using Excel 2007 and it doesn't
seem to work (I think because of the change in the 'Rank' formula).

Is there a formula that I can enter into cells C3:C14 in the 'Gary Results'
tab that will pull through the appropriate person in the correct order?

If you want to save your file in *.xls format I'll take a look at it. I
don't have Excel 2007 but there should be no change in how the RANK function
works.

Apologies for what may have been a bit misleading below.

It may not indeed be the rank function itself, but there is definitely
something that has changed in the interaction between rank, small, offset and
match that is causing problems with exact-match ranks.

I'm unable to upload a 97-03 version at the moment as I'm at work and the
mediafire website is restricted by our firewall. In any case, I'd like to
stick with the 2007 version as it has a lot more flexibility in terms of
conditional formatting than the 97-03 versions did.

Would someone be able to look at the 2007 version?

Regards

Gary

p.s. T Valko - thanks for your response.
