Hello All,

I am trying to create an Output sheet that gives me the result from the Input sheet.
The input sheet match all the similar criteria with other two sheet (Table array 1 and Table array 2).
I tried to combine the formula in the Output sheet to use only one column, but to have order results (it means to have no duplicate criteria and no blank cells between the criteria cells) I need to use more then one column.

The file looks like this (but in this case is an example, since I need to use a formula that matches all the criteria of the column A of the sheet Table array 1, Table array 2 and Input)


[TABLE="width: 115"]
<colgroup><col></colgroup><tbody>[TR]

The formula that I am using in the column A of the sheet-Output, starting from the cell A2, is:

=IF(ISERROR(VLOOKUP(input!A2,'table array 1'!$A:$A,1,0)),IF(ISERROR(VLOOKUP(input!A2,'table array 2'!$A:$A,1,0)),"",input!A2),input!A2)

The result will look like:

[TABLE="width: 92"]
<colgroup><col></colgroup><tbody>[TR]
[TD]subject n[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]subject 5[/TD]

[/TR]

[/TR]
[TR]
[TD][/TD]
[/TR]

[TD]In this case, how can I combine this formula by removing duplicates and white cells in the column A of the sheet-Output?
Thank you for your time. I am trying to solve this issue from 1 month :confused:. [/TD]

Hi sandy666, thank you for your answer. However it's not this what I am looking for.
I expect that the formula automatically removes, in the column A of the sheet output, the blank cells and the duplicates. Just to have order results.
Do you have any idea how to attach file in this post, just to give you an example of what I am looking for?

use OneDrive, GoogleDrive or any similar to share excel file and post link to this file here

btw. I will give you PowerQuery (Get&Transform) solution not a formula. Let me know if you are interested in...

Hi sandy666, below the link:

However I need mostly a formula to solve this issue. If you have any tips how to integrate the options, delete duplicates and white cells, into the formula listed in the output sheet, it will be better.

Hello Mellacio,

I'll try to help you. I suggest you create a helper column in the input sheet, something like this:
