Hello there
The spreadsheet below shows a list of pupils with some of the subjects they are going to sit this year.
The values under the subjects, represent the expected result they will achieve. The scale is 1 = Excellent and 8 = Very Poor.
I needed to filter out (on a separate sheet) any pupil who has a 7 or 8 listed in their expected results.
Thanks to FLUFF (Mr Excel MVP) he was able to assist me using the formula below which worked perfectly.
=LET(f,FILTER(Grading!A2:N11,MMULT(--(Grading!D2:N11>=7),SEQUENCE(COLUMNS(Grading!D1:N1),,,0))),IF(f="","",f))

The client has now asked if they could add another column after each subject with a Grading value of either 4,5,6 or 7.
On the 2nd image you can see I have added the extra columns (Shaded) but because this could also contain a "7" in the column, it follows the above formula and brings over data in that row.
Using Fluffs formula, I tried to pick just the columns that i required but i am failing big time
I need the formula that FLUFF gave me but only to filter on these columns, D15,F15,H15,J15,L15,N15,P15,R15,T15,V15, W15,X15,Y15

Can anyone help?
TIA
George

Excel Facts

Do you hate GETPIVOTDATA?
Prevent GETPIVOTDATA. Select inside a PivotTable. In the Analyze tab of the ribbon, open the dropown next to Options and turn it off
How about
Excel Formula:
=LET(d,CHOOSECOLS(Grading!D2:Y11,SEQUENCE(,11,,2)),f,FILTER(HSTACK(Grading!A2:C11,d),MMULT(--(d>=7),SEQUENCE(COLUMNS(d),,,0))),IF(f="","",f))

Thank you Fluff.
I'm using Office Pro Plus 2021 and it seems it does not like CHOOSECOLS or HSTACK in my formulation (I'm sure I have used CHOOSECOLS before).
I'm getting the error #NAME? and when I step through it it highlights these 2.
Is there another way to do this calculation or to force this one through.
TIA
George

Oops, how about
Excel Formula:
=LET(r,SEQUENCE(ROWS(Grading!D2:Y11)),d,INDEX(Grading!D2:Y11,r,SEQUENCE(,11,,2)),c,COLUMNS(d),s,SEQUENCE(,c+3),f,FILTER(IF(s<=3,Grading!A2:C11,INDEX(d,r,s-3)),MMULT(--(d>=7),SEQUENCE(c,,,0))),IF(f=0,"",f))

Hi Fluff

I tried to make your Formula above work in my spreadsheet but I couldn't get it to work properly, but this is not your fault. Its mine because in the sample spreadsheet above, I only gave a minimal selection of data (for GDPR reasons) so when I tried to implement this in to the larger working sheet, even though I thought it would just be a simple change to the formula, I couldn't get it to work so if you would be so kind, could you have a look at the data sheet that I am working on.
There are 27 subjects from Accounting to Tourism. Each subject has 4 columns, Nat Level, Teacher, Tracking Grade and Working Grade.

My request is to look at the Working grade column for every subject and if it holds a 7 or above then to FILTER that row in to a different sheet. Other columns may have a number 7 or above so its crucial to just focus the filter on the Working Grade columns.
The size of this sheet is from cell A2-DH600 (the xL2BB only allows a limited number of cells to copy over)

Is there any way you can help
Thanks as always

Thanks Fluff
I.m just heading for the train and I will get this checked tonight.

I ran this and it does filter out the data if it contains a 7 or above in any of the "Working Grade" columns so that's great but it actually squeezies all the data into the first 5 or 6 columns so from column AD, there is nothing. See the Mini Sheet.

Would it be possible to change it slightly so that it pulls over all the data in the row if it contains a 7or above in any of the working grades, so not to return just the Working Grade only but it would have the Nat Level, Teachers Name, Tracking Grade and Working Grade. As the image below
Cheers

## Update on the above ##
"squeezies all the data into the first 5 or 6 columns so from column AD, there is nothing."
Having looked at this in more detail i can see thats because I have still kept ALL the column headers in my output page and NOT filtered out JUST the Working Grade columns, so your formula is PERFECT in my eyes....
I will present this to my client tomorrow and explain this is a cleaner output but I know what they are like and I;m positive the will ask for everything to be returned.
So see my question above about pulling over all the data - would this be possible please?
