I've been trying to solve this without using any VBA code to no avail. In this case, the employee can transfer to as many stations as he can.

Did you know Excel offers Filter by Selection?
Add the AutoFilter icon to the Quick Access Toolbar. Select a cell containing Apple, click AutoFilter, and you will get all rows with Apple

Thanks for the quick reply Jeff. I did try it and it seems to be not working on my end though.

ExcelIsFun says that if we can solve it with LOOKUP, we can as well with INDEX, MATCH. Any alternative solution to this?
 
Upvote 0
The Lookup formula will be more efficient than an Index/Match so why do you want an alternative solution when the Lookup works :confused:

Well you know, that Mel Gel Girvin is one smart fellow and I'm guessing he has a solution, but my brain is not coming up with one other than what I provided.

Maybe search his youtube channel for this solution. That is what I would have to do...

Control+shift+enter, not just enter:

=INDEX($C$2:$C$6,MATCH(9.99999999999999E+307,IF($A$2:$A$6=$A9,$D$2:$D$6)))

is equivalent to

=LOOKUP(9.99999999999999E+307,1/($A$2:$A$6=$A9),$C$2:$C$6)

unless a blank instead of a date would correspond to the last occurrence of an employee id.

By the way, 2 behaves here as the more generic 9.99999999999999E+307 would.
