Need No Blanks List based on two conditions

[Chaturanga]

Hello,


I'm looking for a worksheet formula that will produce a list of no
blank values in a third column. First column contains the text values
(30 rows) and they already listed with no blanks. The second column has
boolean TRUE or FALSE values corresponding with the values in the first
column. I'm looking for a formula that will list all first column
values with corresponding second column values that are FALSE in the
third column with no blanks.

Thanks

Select a block of cells in another column, best to be same size as the data,
and enter this formula in the formula bar

=IF(ISERROR(SMALL(IF(NOT($B$1:$B$20),ROW($A1:$A20),""),ROW($A1:$A20))),"",IN
DEX($A$1:$A$20,SMALL(IF(NOT($B1:$B20),ROW($A1:$A20),""),ROW($A1:$A20))))

as an array formula, so commit with Ctrl-Shift-Enter.

Bob, I couldn't get this to work. There was no error with the formula
but there is no data revealed with it either. All blanks. Any
suggestions?

 

[Chaturanga]

Sorry Bob,

I created some data on a new sheet and your array worked just fine. The
data from the first attempt is created from an array formula so that
must create complications. I'll play with this for a while. Thanks
again.

Let A2:A25 be your first column range with A2 housing a label.

In B1 enter: 0

In B2 enter: Idx [ which is just a label ]

In B3 enter & copy down:

=IF(A3<>"",LOOKUP(9.99999999999999E+307,$B$1:B2)+1,"")

In C1 enter:

=LOOKUP(9.99999999999999E+307,B1:B25)

In C2 enter: No Blanks List

In C3 enter & copy down:

=IF(ROW()-($C$3)+1<=$C$1,LOOKUP(ROW()-($C$3)+1,$B$2:$B$25,$A$2:$A$25),"")

From C3 on, you'll have the desired list with no interspersed
blank/empty cells.

Hello Aladin,

I'm afraid your final formula produces a curcular reference error. $C$3
cannot be in the formula. Column B works well. I'm trying to get it to work.
Thanks.

Stefano,

That should not happen. Would you post the formulas as you adjusted them
to your data?

The formula:

=IF(ROW()-($C$3)+1<=$C$1,LOOKUP(ROW()-($C$3)+1,$B$2:$B$25,$A$2:$A$25),"")

poduces a circular reference if entered in cell C3 (as I read your
instructions). I did not adapt to my situation as I tested it out on a clean
worksheet first.

I see what happened. The formula should be:

=IF(ROW()-ROW($C$3)+1<=$C$1,LOOKUP(ROW()-ROW($C$3)+1,$B$2:$B$25,$A$2:$A$25),"")

The formula:

=IF(ROW()-($C$3)+1<=$C$1,LOOKUP(ROW()-($C$3)+1,$B$2:$B$25,$A$2:$A$25),"")

their Excel numeric equivalents.
[2] The lookup functions should have an optional argument for the return
value, defaulting to #N/A in its absence.

Excellent! Thanks.
