Default Array Help Tweak

Opps I meant colmn "D" is left out.

Thanks Bob. I am getting results but only in reference to colmn C and E.
Colmn B is left out inhibiting the results. The results show only B6=100 &
B19=315. The rest are omitted.

Okay,

It is a two-step approach.

First select cell B2, and add a defined name (InsertNamedefine...) with a
name of lastX and a RefersTo value of

=INDEX($C$1:$C$20,MAX(IF($F$1:$F1="X",ROW($F$1:$F1 )))-1):INDEX($E$1:$E$20,MA
X(IF($F$1:$F1="X",ROW($F$1:$F1)))+1)

Then in cell B2, note, leave B1 clear, add the formula

=IF(COUNTIF($F1:$F3,"X")0,"",IF(AND(
SUMPRODUCT(--ISNUMBER(MATCH(lastX,C2,0))),
SUMPRODUCT(--ISNUMBER(MATCH(lastX,D2,0))),
SUMPRODUCT(--ISNUMBER(MATCH(lastX,E2,0)))),(C2&D2&E2)+0,""))

and copy down

Thank you for being there to help us,
Is it possible to have a formula in colmn B that will look at any three
individual cells in the array C1:E3 and match them up to any one row

from the
array F1:H11, then display a cancatenation of three like cells from

array
F1:H11 in Colmn B?

I hope this example comes through well enough for you.
Thank you,

Max Said:

=IF(AND(SUMPRODUCT(--ISNUMBER(MATCH($C$1:$E$3,F1,0))),SUMPRODUCT(--ISNUMBER(
MATCH($C$1:$E$3,G1,0))),SUMPRODUCT(--ISNUMBER(MATCH($C$1:$E$3,H1,0)))),(F1&G

Worked great for what it was intended to do. Now I am asking if that

formula
can be tweaked a bit more.
for example the formula currently looks at $C$1:$E$3 and matches the
corresponding row results in F1:H11 while staying locked into $C$1:$E$3.
Now that I see it can be done, I changed my data so that it is all in the
same colmns (see example below).
Until now I would manually pull out the range $C$1:$E$3 and then I looked
for the results.. you helped me with that.
In colmn "F" I marked the middle row (C2:E2) of the range $C$1:$E$3 with

an
"X" and note the "X" at (C10:E10) of $C$9:$E$11 as well as (C17:E17) of
$C$16:$E$18 .
I would like to know if it is possible to have the same formula keep it's
original search until it finds another "X" in colmn "F" then unlock from
$C$1:$E$3 (ie $C1:$E3) then lock onto that new range, in this case it's
$C$9:$E$11, until it finds another "X" and so on.
To be clear, the range that "X" represents would always have three total
rows as in the original thread; including the row that
contains the "X", one row above and one row below. As well it would not

look
back at previous ranges but once locked into arange it would keep matching

on
the current "X" Range until it finds another... I think it's a streatch

but I
am always amazed at what you guys can do.
Thanks again for your help,
Luke

Thank you for your help. It is alright if it is impossible as I can work
with what I have already.
