    search for string in another sheet, get cell number and put cells in first sheet

    I am not sure what the exact term is but let me expane my issue.
    I have 2 sheets in a workbook using Excel 2007.
    the sheet # 2 (SM) contains data that each driver gets during th erace season and depending on the data thats entered the Rank will move, I use the Rank function.
    on sheet # 1 (Ranking) I want to list the ranking in order. So here is the data.

    Ranking
    I have 20 drivers, each with scores, every race their times are entered
    the sheet calculates their place or rank.

    SM
    I have a list of 20 drivers, each week as times are entered I would like the list to reflect
    the data on sheet2.

    Rank = SM!A28
    Driver Name = SM!B27
    points =SM!D55
    Races = SM!D30

    I tried this fuction but it will not list the Cell data

    = MATCH(1,SM!$A$5:$A$500,0) in cell F2 in sheet1 contains the cell number 28

    So waht I am doing here is looking for the driver who is in first place on sheet2
    so I found the cell that contains the number 1.

    Then I need to get the Driver name and put it in Cell A2

    = SM!B + F1 -1

    Then get the points in Cell B2

    = SM!D + F1 +27

    Then get the races in Cell C2

    = SM!D + F1 +27

    then repeat this for all 20 drivers
