I apologize, but I cannot get XL2BB to work right now. Excel hangs when the Add-on is enabled. :(

I have the following sheet, where I am trying to create a unique list of values from the values in Column A if the corresponding value in Column B says "Yes." The dynamic list would start in Column C and just contain values in column A if column B equals "Yes". Is there a formula I can use to accomplish this?

Cheers,

Guy

Excel Facts

What is the fastest way to copy a formula?
If A2:A50000 contain data. Enter a formula in B2. Select B2. Double-click the Fill Handle and Excel will shoot the formula down to B50000.
The easiest is using a pivot table in 2019.

I was hoping to avoid using pivot tables on this sheet. Are there no formulas to accomplish what I am looking to do?

The FILTER function available in 2021 makes it easy but you can try this. It's not entirely dynamic. You'd need to pull down until you get an error.
