Hi, I was looking at an old topic from 2014 and I am trying to extend an array formula to stack data from 9 columns ignoring 0 and blanks.
My workings are in below screenshot;

and sample data is as below;

Sheet1



The blank cells are either blank or 0s which have been told to show as blank
I am trying to stack A3:A500, B3:B500 Until H3:H500 starting in R3

The formula in R3 is rather monstrous (run as an array);

=IF($AQ$1>=ROWS(BH$3:BH3),INDEX(AQ:AQ,SMALL(IF($AQ$3:$AQ$500<>0,ROW($AQ$3:$AQ$500)),ROWS(BH$3:BH3))),IF($AQ$1+$AR$1>=ROWS(BH$3:BH3),INDEX(AR:AR,SMALL(IF($AR$3:$AR$500<>0,ROW($AR$3:$AR$500)),ROWS(BH$3:BH3)-$AQ$1))),IF($AQ$1+$AR$1+$AS$1>=ROWS(BH$3:BH3),INDEX(AS:AS,SMALL(IF($As$3:$As$500<>0,ROW($As$3:$As$500)),ROWS(BH$3:BH3)-($AQ$1+$AR$1))),IF($AQ$1+$AR$1+$AS$1+$AT$1>=ROWS(BH$3:BH3),INDEX(AT:AT,SMALL(IF($AT$3:$AT$500<>0,ROW($AT$3:$AT$500)),ROWS(BH$3:BH3)-($AQ$1+$AR$1+$AS$1)))),IF($AQ$1+$AR$1+$AS$1+$AT$1+$AU$1>=ROWS(BH$3:BH3),INDEX(AU:AU,SMALL(IF($AU$3:$AU$500<>0,ROW($AU$3:$AU$500)),ROWS(BH$3:BH3)-($AQ$1+$AR$1+$AS$1+$AT$1))),IF($AQ$1+$AR$1+$AS$1+$AT$1+$AU$1+$AV$1>=ROWS(BH$3:BH3),INDEX(AV:AV,SMALL(IF($AV$3:$AV$500<>0,ROW($AV$3:$AV$500)),ROWS(BH$3:BH3)-($AQ$1+$AR$1+$AS$1+$AT$1+$AU$1)))),IF($AQ$1+$AR$1+$AS$1+$AT$1+$AU$1+$AV$1+$AW$1>=ROWS(BH$3:BH3),INDEX(AW:AW,SMALL(IF($AW$3:$AW$500<>0,ROW($AW$3:$AW$500)),ROWS(BH$3:BH3)-($AQ$1+$AR$1+$AS$1+$AT$1+$AU$1+$AV$1))),IF($AQ$1+$AR$1+$AS$1+$AT$1+$AU$1+$AV$1+$AW$1+$AX$1>=ROWS(BH$3:BH3),INDEX(AX:AX,SMALL(IF($AX$3:$AX$500<>0,ROW($AX$3:$AX$500)),ROWS(BH$3:BH3)-($AQ$1+$AR$1+$AS$1+$AT$1+$AU$1+$AV$1+$AW$1)))),""))

I think I may have some punctuation out of place. Any assistance greatly appreciated. The legacy topic is here: Stacking multiple columns into one column without including 0 or Blanks

Many thanks in advance for your help
 

Excel Facts

Which Excel functions can ignore hidden rows?
The SUBTOTAL and AGGREGATE functions ignore hidden rows. AGGREGATE can also exclude error cells and more.
What version of Excel are you using?

I suggest that you update your Account details (or click your user name at the top right of the forum) so helpers always know what Excel version(s) & platform(s) you are using as the best solution often varies by version. (Don’t forget to scroll down & ‘Save’)

Solution
That is a beautiful, elegant and generally sexy solution to my problem. I was not familiar enough with the LET and TOCOL functions to put it together so I am very grateful.
I shall update my profile immediately. For you :-)
Have an awesome day! You have made tomorrow a lot easier for me :-)
