Brian,

Assuming that the data is in columns A & B, use these formulae

=IF(ISERROR(SMALL(IF($A1:$A20={12,33},ROW($A1:$A20 ),""),ROW($A1:$A20))),"",
INDEX(A1:A20,SMALL(IF($A1:$A20={12,33},ROW($A1:$A2 0),""),ROW($A1:$A20))))

=IF(ISERROR(SMALL(IF($A1:$A20={12,33},ROW($A1:$A20 ),""),ROW($A1:$A20))),"",
INDEX(B1:B20,SMALL(IF($A1:$A20={12,33},ROW($A1:$A2 0),""),ROW($A1:$A20))))

These are both array formulae, but you don't enter in just one cell at a
time, but a block. So, assuming your source data has 20 rows, select 20 rows
elsehwere on the spreadsheet, add the first formula to the formula bar, and
commit with Ctrl-Shift-Enter, Then repeat in an adjacent column with the
second formula.
