I have a list of dates in a column that is based on a formula. So the cells contain a formula to gather the dates. The column contains 200 rows, the dates listed have usually less than 25 dates. I would like to make a separate list without the blanks showing just the dates.
 

Excel Facts

What is the fastest way to copy a formula?
If A2:A50000 contain data. Enter a formula in B2. Select B2. Double-click the Fill Handle and Excel will shoot the formula down to B50000.
A picture or some sample data, preferably posted using XL2BB, would be helpful as it's not entirely clear what you need. For example, when you say 'without the blanks', does that imply that of the 200 rows only about 25 are dates and the rest are blank? Are there duplicate dates among the 200 and should they be kept or discarded? Is this a one-off or are you looking for a formula or VBA solution. As a one-off you could use Data->Data Tools->Remove duplicates.

Hi, maybe you can have a go at adapting something like this to your actual layout. The column A formula is just to generate test data for the formula in column C.

Cell Formulas
RangeFormula
A2:A19A2=IF(ISODD(RANDBETWEEN(1,10)),DATE(RANDBETWEEN(2000,2024),RANDBETWEEN(1,12),1),"")
C2:C19C2=IFERROR(INDEX($A$2:$A$20,AGGREGATE(15,6,(ROW($A$2:$A$20)-MIN(ROW($A$2:$A$20))+1)/ISNUMBER($A$2:$A$20),ROWS(C$2:C2))),"")
