Eric W. this is what I was talking about

Trying to create a formula that will take all that match in (Array1) A1:N8 with (Array2) A10:N17 and then place them in a single row, sorted.
I can get them singled out but no able to figure out how to get them into one row...

P1:AC8 (yellow area) shows the matching, however I can't figure out how to bring them together to look like P12:AG12 (green area).

The final goal would eliminate the yellow section (P1:AC8) and only have one single sorted row (P12:AG12) in its place

Hope that makes sense and thank you for any help

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.
Thank you for using XL2BB! It makes it much easier to work with, especially with a lot of data. You can try:

This assumes that the numbers are actual numbers, not numbers saved as text. But your expected result of "026" makes me wonder about that. Also if you had Excel 2010 or newer, I'd put an IFERROR in the formula so you don't get the error codes. But there are some options for that if you want. But see how this works so far. This also removes duplicates, so a number will only show up once.

Tiny typo in the formula, it should be:

=SMALL(IF(COUNTIF($A$10:$N$17,$A$1:$N$8)*(COUNTIF($O12:O$12,$A$1:$N$8)=0),$A$1:$N$8),1)

Perfect! You!
Merry Christmas!
Thank You so much. All the best to you and family

Getting #NUM! when extending/dragging to right and seems to be dogging somewhat with a bigger data sheet. Guessing it could be #NUM! issue.
Thank you!

I doubt that the #NUM is causing a lag. Anything I'd do to eliminate that would involve more processing. I believe it would depend on how big your ranges are. Every formula would involve the umber of elements in the first array times the number of elements in the second array, or a squared function. Squared functions grow rapidly. If you have big enough arrays, it might be worthwhile to write a macro that does this, which could be more efficient.

That makes sense. I do have a max rows of 98 cells X 10, and figure that most definately would be the issue... Back to the drawing board. I have a macro that pushes everything down starting at row20 then copies it, plus one back into row 20 so I wonder if it could simply be added to it.
All the Best and Merry Christmas
