golf scorecard
- Mar 09, 2022dawesy You need to incorporate the "strokes received" formula into the overall points calculation. To calculate all in one formula is possible but the formula becomes quite complex. Better to add a row for each player where the points per hole are calculated and then added up in the end. You can alway hide these extra rows if you want. I took the liberty of changing some formats in your sheet 🙂 Enjoy your golf! 
Hi attached is a copy of the scorecard i wish to use as you see there are a number of players and i am not sure how to insert your formula the one you sent me works ok except for someone who doesn't get a shot on a particular hole i would be very appreciative if you could work out to the formula to work on my scorecard
Sincerly hoping Ian

- dawesyJun 24, 2022Brass ContributorHi it appears to work thank you could you tell me is it a formula or conditioning formatting which ever could you send me how you work it out if that is possible as i would like to do the same in columns L and V if that can be done easily i am not sure how to set the formatting up
 Thanks be much appreciated Ian
- Riny_van_EekelenJun 22, 2022Platinum Contributordawesy I added some conditional formatting to the last three columns. By the way, I moved the points out of column W. Otherwise CF will be a complete mess when you try to format both score and points. See if this works for you. 
- dawesyJun 21, 2022Brass ContributorHi Riny sorry about the mess i sent hopefully this is better have attached a file of a scorecard if you can see this i have tried to highlite the highest and lowest scores i the following columns ( W which is total score to par ) and ( X which is total points ) hope i explained i ok his im hanks Ian 
- Riny_van_EekelenJun 21, 2022Platinum Contributordawesy You just uploaded a bunch of text. Please upload a file like you used to and indicate which cell you want to highlight.

- Riny_van_EekelenJun 21, 2022Platinum Contributordawesy When you say "the highest number in a column", do you mean best result. I.e. highest points or lowest score. Exactly which cells should be highlighted? Can you give an example of a sheet you would want to do this on? If you haven't already done so, look into Conditional Formatting. 
- dawesyJun 21, 2022Brass ContributorHi there again after what you did for me with the handicap formula which is working great thank you again, i was wondering if it possible to highlite the highest number in a column say points or par score
