Excel Facts

Will the fill handle fill 1, 2, 3?
Yes! Type 1 in a cell. Hold down Ctrl while you drag the fill handle.
Still don't have data to test with but try

=SUBSTITUTE(TRIM(IFNA(INDEX(Categories!B$2:B$100,MATCH(F5,Categories!A$2:A$100,0),1),"")&" "&IFNA(INDEX(Categories!B$2:B$100,MATCH(G5,Categories!A$2:A$100,0),1),""))," ",",")

i sent screen shot before again with data
Yes but only the formula sheet, not 'Categories' so there was no way to actually see how 112,111 was obtained or why the other formulas returned #N/A ;)
