Hi,


Not really sure the best way to describe what I need to do but I'll give it a go.


I have a stock listing for one of our customers of all we hold for them and they want to see a cut down version of this on a different sheet in the same workbook but only items that meet certain criteria. I've sorted out the formula I need to highlight just these items on the original sheet but I'm having trouble listing the different items on a separate sheet. I've used a VLookup but (as most of you will know being experts) it's picking up the same entry again and again as the identifier on the main sheet is the same.

I've currently got this formula on a few rows:
=VLOOKUP("BI!",'ProdSchedRep'!$A$1:$X$100,2)
And it's picking up the same row each time from the other sheet. What would I need to do to this to get it to show each row with the same identifier? I'm guessing that VLookup isn't the right formula to try but I don't know what is. I've tried to search the forums but not knowing the right formula I do need to use I'm finding it a struggle to search!

If more info is needed then let me know what you need and I'll supply :)
Thanks for any help you can give.
 

Excel Facts

Copy formula down without changing references
If you have =SUM(F2:F49) in F50; type Alt+' in F51 to copy =SUM(F2:F49) to F51, leaving the formula in edit mode. Change SUM to COUNT.
Post a sample spreadsheet with expected results, remove any sensitive data, create a mockup example if necessary.

Yep looks good.

in Sheet2!A2
=IFERROR(INDEX(Sheet1!$A$3:$Q$9,SMALL(IF((Sheet1!$D$3:$D$9="DCT")*(Sheet1!$M3<>0),ROW($A$3:$A$9)),ROW(A1))-(ROW(A$3)-1),1),"")

in Sheet2!B2
=IFERROR(INDEX(Sheet1!$A$3:$Q$9,SMALL(IF((Sheet1!$D$3:$D$9="DCT")*(Sheet1!$M3<>0),ROW($A$3:$A$9)),ROW(A1))-(ROW(A$3)-1),2),"")

in Sheet2!C2
=IFERROR(INDEX(Sheet1!$A$3:$Q$9,SMALL(IF((Sheet1!$D$3:$D$9="DCT")*(Sheet1!$M3<>0),ROW($A$3:$A$9)),ROW(A1))-(ROW(A$3)-1),9),"")

in Sheet2!D2
=IFERROR(INDEX(Sheet1!$A$3:$Q$9,SMALL(IF((Sheet1!$D$3:$D$9="DCT")*(Sheet1!$M3<>0),ROW($A$3:$A$9)),ROW(A1))-(ROW(A$3)-1),10),"")

in Sheet2!E2
=IFERROR(INDEX(Sheet1!$A$3:$Q$9,SMALL(IF((Sheet1!$D$3:$D$9="DCT")*(Sheet1!$M3<>0),ROW($A$3:$A$9)),ROW(A1))-(ROW(A$3)-1),11),"")

in Sheet2!F2
=IFERROR(INDEX(Sheet1!$A$3:$Q$9,SMALL(IF((Sheet1!$D$3:$D$9="DCT")*(Sheet1!$M3<>0),ROW($A$3:$A$9)),ROW(A1))-(ROW(A$3)-1),12),"")

NOTE: These are ALL array formulas so enter them using Ctrl-Shift-Enter
Once entered in row 2 copy them down the column for as many rows as you have in Sheet1.
In this case your range in Sheet1 is A3:A9 which is 7 rows so copy the formulas down on Sheet 2 for 7 rows.
If you have 1000 rows on your proper "Sheet1" you will need to copy the formulas down 1000 rows on Sheet2.

I can't get it to show anything but in my haste I think I may have forgotten to tell you a piece of information though.

In the cut down version I only want to show the orders that have BI! in the very first column in the larger table. The BI! only shows in the larger table when the despatch method is DC T or DD 3P and that the Qty Delivered doesn't say 0.

Sorry I forgot to put that bit :-/

In my haste i mistook "DC T" for "DCT", you'll need to amend the formula to account for that.
Try this
Again Array formula, use Ctrl-Shift-Enter copy themown the columns

in Sheet2!A2
=IFERROR(INDEX(Sheet1!$A$3:$Q$9,SMALL(IF((Sheet1!$D$3:$D$9="DC T")*(Sheet1!$M3<>0)*(Sheet1!$A3="BI!"),ROW($A$3:$A$9)),ROW(A1))-(ROW(A$3)-1),1),"")

in Sheet2!B2
=IFERROR(INDEX(Sheet1!$A$3:$Q$9,SMALL(IF((Sheet1!$D$3:$D$9="DC T")*(Sheet1!$M3<>0)*(Sheet1!$A3="BI!"),ROW($A$3:$A$9)),ROW(A1))-(ROW(A$3)-1),2),"")

in Sheet2!C2
=IFERROR(INDEX(Sheet1!$A$3:$Q$9,SMALL(IF((Sheet1!$D$3:$D$9="DC T")*(Sheet1!$M3<>0)*(Sheet1!$A3="BI!"),ROW($A$3:$A$9)),ROW(A1))-(ROW(A$3)-1),9),"")

in Sheet2!D2
=IFERROR(INDEX(Sheet1!$A$3:$Q$9,SMALL(IF((Sheet1!$D$3:$D$9="DC T")*(Sheet1!$M3<>0)*(Sheet1!$A3="BI!"),ROW($A$3:$A$9)),ROW(A1))-(ROW(A$3)-1),10),"")

in Sheet2!E2
=IFERROR(INDEX(Sheet1!$A$3:$Q$9,SMALL(IF((Sheet1!$D$3:$D$9="DC T")*(Sheet1!$M3<>0)*(Sheet1!$A3="BI!"),ROW($A$3:$A$9)),ROW(A1))-(ROW(A$3)-1),11),"")

in Sheet2!F2
=IFERROR(INDEX(Sheet1!$A$3:$Q$9,SMALL(IF((Sheet1!$D$3:$D$9="DC T")*(Sheet1!$M3<>0)*(Sheet1!$A3="BI!"),ROW($A$3:$A$9)),ROW(A1))-(ROW(A$3)-1),12),"")

If this doesn't work post a sample file

Hi Special-K99 :)

Sorry I have had some normal work to do so had to leave these for a couple of days. I've entered the formula's and I've achieved partial success. The main objective was I wanted the cut down version of the sheet to only pick up the rows with BI! one after the other (so no blank rows). Also something weird is happening with the results. If they all say BI! then they all show up which is great but if one of them is empty then it seems that one or more rows gets ignored. I'll paste an example in the next message.

Thanks for all your help this far by the way :)
