Hi,

Would anyone be able to help with the following? I've attached a screenshot for ease.

My aim is to return the project codes 101 & 102 - this is because they have values against them in the three Q3 fields.

Please note that I also want to avoid duplication ... so if there was two lines with 101 McDonalds ... I'd only want to return this once.

Thanks in advance!
Ryan

In A15 control+shift+enter, not just enter, and copy down:

=IFERROR(INDEX($A$5:$A$9,SMALL(IF(FREQUENCY(IF($C$4:$H$4=$C$14,IF(ISNUMBER($C$5:$H$9),MATCH($A$5:$A$9,$A$5:$A$9,0))),ROW($A$5:$A$9)-ROW($A$5)+1),ROW($A$5:$A$9)-ROW($A$5)+1),ROWS($A$15:A15))),"")

In B15 just enter and copy down:

=IF($A15="","",VLOOKUP($A15,$A$5:$B$9,2,0))

In C15 control+shift+enter, not just enter...

Either:

=IF($A15="","",SUM(IF($C$4:$H$4=C$14,IF($A$5:$A$9=$A15,$C$5:$H$9))))

Or:

=IF($A15="","",MAX(IF($C$4:$H$4=C$14,IF($A$5:$A$9=$A15,$C$5:$H$9))))

@Aladin Akyurek / @Eric W

Hi guys - I've tried both approaches and obviously completed the array formulas with ctrl+shift+enter. It just fails to return anything in column A (and this appears to control the logic).

The formula looks hugely impressive and it must be close so I thank you both.

Did you manage to get this to work on your own excel (and perhaps I'm doing something wrong?)

Thanks again
Ryan

Control+shift+enter >> Press down the control and the shift keys at the same time while you hit the enter key. If done successfully, Excel itself puts a pair of { and } around the formula in recognition.

See the implementation: https://www.dropbox.com/s/fkvanmeentd5gvs/ryansm05 unique list etc.xlsx?dl=0
@Aladin Akyurek - Please see below screenshots. I've executed the array correctly but it does not return anything. I've also had a play with where cells were fixed etc + tried adjusting the lookup, but still no joy..

Do you have any ideas?

Cheers

Did you examine the file I provided?

That's amazing @Aladin Akyurek

I've edited this as I didn't need my last question answered.

I jus want to say thank you for your help, and ask how you accumulated this knowledge? Would you be able to briefly run me through the logic here. I'm pretty good with general formulas but arrays are something new to me.

i'd love to be able to have a go myself and offer something back to the community as opposed to pestering you guys...

Final question Aladin ...

If I wanted to add a third criteria - exactly the same as before, but to only include UK stores (in column C) ... what would I need to do to amend the formula?

If you can help me here I'll be eternally grateful.

Thanks
Ryan

I hope this isn't confusing...

In A15 control+shift+enter and copy down:

=IFERROR(INDEX($A$5:$A$9,SMALL(IF(FREQUENCY(IF($C$5:$C$9="UK",IF($D$4:$I$4=$C$14,IF(ISNUMBER($D$5:$I$9),MATCH($A$5:$A$9,$A$5:$A$9,0)))),ROW($A$5:$A$9)-ROW($A$5)+1),ROW($A$5:$A$9)-ROW($A$5)+1),ROWS($A$15:A15))),"")
