So, from ColumnC above - if I insert that column, when I type in say 2 on my game form, its only going to pull a 1 because that is the captain column. Im not sure how to get around that yet. And where is your conditional formatting? You did explore [Format → Conditional formatting], didn't you? Kind regards Johnny Rosenberg ジョニー・ローゼンバーグ -- - To unsubscribe send email to users-unsubscr...@openoffice.org For additional commands send email to sy...@openoffice.org with Subject: help Well, I didnt get to the conditional formatting because of the vlookup layout problem that I posted above. I don't follow your spreadsheet layout, but appending the style function should do what you want. -- - To unsubscribe send email to users-unsubscr...@openoffice.org For additional commands send email to sy...@openoffice.org with Subject: help Thats cool. But, I dont think that will work. Column #1 Mark #2 Brad #4 Tim #5 Kim #6 Jennifer #8 Ryan #9 John - Capt #10 Steve In the above, the captain is in the 7th row but the team to the right the captain might be in row 1 or 10. Capt is not written in the cell (space requirements) so I was going to add a row to the right of each team but that messes with the vlookup. -- -- Registered Linux User: #480675 Registered Linux Machine: #408606 Linux since June 2005 Tried this: =STYLE(Bold) + VLOOKUP(G10,$Teams.A2:B8,2,0) from the OO examples and I just get errors. This doesnt help with finding my capt issue but as for formatting, its a problem.
