Hi. Previously, I have posted this question How to split the name and display the status of task/project for each name?. Usually, each staff has their own task for the similar project. I tried to add additional column, which is Task and the output only recognize the first and second name of staff (M1 and M2), but for M3 and M4, it can't recognized as shown in table below. The status project for M2 should be in progress instead of on-hold. Kindly need your help for this question and thank you.

How to find 2nd largest value in a column?
MAX finds the largest value. =LARGE(A:A,2) will find the second largest. =SMALL(A:A,3) will find the third smallest
Here's something that will work in 365, but it's not great.

Thank you for your reply. Actually, I used my office laptop and it only supported Microsoft 2019 only. I know that FILTERXML is only supported for Microsoft 365 and 2021

Is there any solution that you can recommend to me? Thank you

filterxml works on older excels. The textjoin, sort and filter doesn't work on older excels... I don't think I could pull this off in older excel.

Yes. I have tried it, but it stated that 'the function isn't valid'.
