    RANK is basically just a representation of COUNTIF, so you can use that instead (which I believe is available, according to that website). So in C1:

    =COUNTIF($B$1:$B$5,"<"&B1)+1

    copied down.

    Hope this helps!

    Thats excellant Richard, it covers the Rank, the Small (first row onwards) and the Large = last row (working up)

    Hi,

    I thought of that but he can't use Countif either looking at the list of functions available to him

    Thanks!

    I just tested it in Excel (of course I forgot my Palm at home), and it worked!
    I'll let you know if we're 100% on the Palm, and it looks like we will be!
    Thanks a ga-zillion!
