Hi,

I am struggling to make Textjoin work with an additional criteria.

VBA Code:
=TEXTJOIN(", ",TRUE,UNIQUE(FILTER(RawData[ID],RawData[Issue Status]="","")))

I am using the above code, which works, but then i want to use the same one, but adding an additional condition, which should be the below:

Code:
=IF(RawData[Aggregate status]="Open",TEXTJOIN(", ",TRUE,UNIQUE(FILTER(RawData[ID],RawData[Issue Status]="",""))),"")

Problem, i see.. is that apart from seeing #Spill! error, is that it should actually give empty result.

The idea is to obtain IDs from a table, where there is blank cell in specific columns.
And also, same as above, but when at the same time, the status is Open.

There is a table called RawData, and column names are as mentioned in the code. All i care is about the empty cells from the columns, and obtain the ID.

Hope it makes sense the explanation.

Thanks in advance!
Dani
 

Excel Facts

Format cells as currency
Select range and press Ctrl+Shift+4 to format cells as currency. (Shift 4 is the $ sign).
How about
Excel Formula:
=TEXTJOIN(", ",TRUE,UNIQUE(FILTER(RawData[ID],(RawData[Issue Status]="")*(RawData[Aggregate status]="Open"),"")))

oh great! that works, thanks!

so if i add the * , its like adding criteria one after the other?

The * is multiplying the 2 arrays so that both have to be true for a value to be returned. If you wanted to return values where one or the other was true you would use + instead.
