Good evening all. I apologize for just asking for help. I normally muddle through these tasks and figure it out. I have a short fuzed task to pull this together.

I am looking to pull 2 separate lists out of one main list.
Main is the complete "action tracker".
List 1 is what was worked on in the "last 48" hours.
List 2 is what is intended to be worked on in the "Next 48" hours.
One hitch is a task could be in both list 1 and 2, so i added an entry for "last 48, Next 48".

I wanted to keep the column order the same, but it could be changed if it had to be.

I am not exactly sure if index/match is the best solution. I am just under a time crunch and could use some help on solving this puzzle.

Thanks.

Formula to generate "last 48" list
=INDEX($B$4:$B$10,MATCH($I$3,D$4:$D$10, 0),1)

Please recommend other solutions outside of index/match if you can think of something different.

Thanks much!!!

What did Pito Salas invent?
Pito Salas, working for Lotus, popularized what would become to be pivot tables. It was released as Lotus Improv in 1989.
With your current setup you can use following formula which should be committed by pressing CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER (array formula) simultaneously. Then copy down as much as you need.
=IFERROR(INDEX($B$1:$B$8,SMALL(IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH($I$3,$D$1:$D$8)),ROW($D$1:$D$8),9E+307),ROWS($A$1:A1))),"")
