Hi,

I have two separate questions.

1. How would I go about having my matrix quadrants auto-populate once the quadrant is identified on the associated table? I have written several formulas, but keep receiving duplicate "Goals" appear. I have added a second matrix to my workbook to illustrate how I would like it to appear.

Formula I used
Displayed in the first matrix on the "Quick Wins" quadrant (cells C5:C19). Notice multiple duplicates.

=IF(N6="","",IF(N6="Quick Win",K6,IF(N7="","",IF(N7="Quick Win",K7,IF(N8="","",IF(N8="Quick Win",K8,IF(N9="","",IF(N9="Quick Win",K9,IF(N10="","",IF(N10="Quick Win",K10,IF(N11="","",IF(N11="Quick Win",K11,IF(N12="","",IF(N12="Quick Win",K12,IF(N13="","",IF(N13="Quick Win",K13,IF(N14="","",IF(N14="Quick Win",K14,IF(N15="","",IF(N15="Quick Win",K15,IF(N16="","",IF(N16="Quick Win",K16,IF(N17="","",IF(N17="Quick Win",K17,IF(N18="","",IF(N18="Quick Win",K18,IF(N19="","",IF(N19="Quick Win",K19,IF(N20="","",IF(N20="Quick Win",K20))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))

2. When the status changes to "DONE" on the table, I would like the associated "Goal" to remain listed on the matrix, but be crossed out. (See the attached image for "Goal 1" and "Goal 8" on the second matrix. For some reason it won't display on the XL2BB table I copied over.)

Excel Facts

Format cells as date
Select range and press Ctrl+Shift+3 to format cells as date. (Shift 3 is the # sign which sort of looks like a small calendar).
These are the formulas, they are array formulas. I also attach the file for you to review in detail the array formulas and the conditional formatting.
