This is an array formula that must be entered with CTRL-SHIFT-ENTER.
Drag formula down and across as needed.

thanks. If i didn't want the results in a table, but wanted the results to if sales person = A20, then would i delete all after the first a20?

You would just drag the formula down and enter the sales person name you want in cell A20.
