Hi All,

I am new to this forum & this is my first Q.

We have 2 sheets. Sheet1 has Column A & B. Column A has a unique area name from A2: A100 and column B has our executive names from B2: B100, Each executive can have multiple areas. We have 10 executives.

What I Need is...

In Sheet2 I have all the executive names in a horizontal way, Ie: A1 with first executive name, B1 with second executive name, C1 with third executive name and so on till J1 with the tenth executive name.
I want the area names assigned to then under each executive name.

Example - In the sheet2 cell, A1 will have First Executive Name and under them, all the 10 areas list need to appear from Sheet1 column A

Can someone please help me with the formula ASAP?
 

Excel Facts

Will the fill handle fill 1, 2, 3?
Yes! Type 1 in a cell. Hold down Ctrl while you drag the fill handle.
Paste the following Sheet2 A1 and copy to right:

=INDEX(Sheet1!$A$2:$B$200,MATCH(E$1,Sheet1!$B$2:$B$200,0),1)
