Dynamically generating a list based on values in another column

I'm somehow failing to Google my way out of this...

I have 2 named ranges, Items, and Users. As I have a lot of Items with Users of ""/0 I want to populate a side list containing only Items with Users >0.

My first Item starts on row 10 and I have created (stolen) the following array formula.

=IFERROR(INDEX(Items,SMALL(IF(Users<>"",ROW(Items)),ROW(10:10))-1,1),””)

However, I've had endless problems trying to modify this for my needs as array formulas are not my strong point.

Can anyone assist me with this, please?
 

Excel Facts

Square and cube roots
The =SQRT(25) is a square root. For a cube root, use =125^(1/3). For a fourth root, use =625^(1/4).
Hi,

My initial recommendation would be to test :

=IFERROR(INDEX(Items,SMALL(IF(Users<>"",ROW(Users)),ROW(10:10))-1,1),””)

HTH

I've dropped the named ranges for testing purposes. Your amended formula works if I remove the -1 and the cells begin in row 1, modifying ROW(1:1) to 10:10 seems to be breaking something (#NAME).

Thanks, I may have to just drop maintainability until I'm a little smarter.

Hi again,

Would recommend the following Array Formula...( if your data starts in Row 2 ...)

Replace rng ... with your own range ...

Code:
=INDEX(rng,SMALL(IF(rng<>"",ROW(rng)-MIN(ROW(rng))+1),ROWS($2:2)))

Hope this will help
