Hi,

Similar to this thread (Return all Unique Values Based on Criteria in a Single Cell).

I've modified the formula to suit the first table below but I wanted to include the column headings in brackets for each found occurrence as it appears in the example in the 2nd table below.
Is this possible with a formula (not Vb) ?

Thx in advance
Gav

Excel Facts

Which lookup functions find a value equal or greater than the lookup value?
MATCH uses -1 to find larger value (lookup table must be sorted ZA). XLOOKUP uses 1 to find values greater and does not need to be sorted.
Try G2: =TEXTJOIN("|",1,UNIQUE(BYCOL(B2:F2,LAMBDA(c,IF(c="","",c&"("&TEXTJOIN(", ",1,IF(B2:F2=c,B$1:F$1,""))&")"))),1))

Solution
Try G2: =TEXTJOIN("|",1,UNIQUE(BYCOL(B2:F2,LAMBDA(c,IF(c="","",c&"("&TEXTJOIN(", ",1,IF(B2:F2=c,B$1:F$1,""))&")"))),1))

Perfect !!
Thank you.

I keep forgetting about LAMBDA. I really should try to incorporate that a bit more often and get used to using it and thinking of it as a solution.
Cheers
