Default If specific text result,... corresponing cell info in another

Steve,

Think we can revert to using the simpler entire col refs now that you've
exposed your layout

In your checksheet,

Put in A3:
=IF(dataprior!H3="","",IF(dataprior!H3="No Longer Here",ROW(),""))
(Ensure that A1:A2 are left blank)

Put in B3:
=IF(ROW(A1)COUNT(A:A),"",INDEX(dataprior!A:A,SMAL L(A:A,ROW(A1))))
Select A3:B3, fill down as far as required to cover the extent of source
data. It should work fine now.

Well, this is getting kinda spooky.
The weird thing is that just like yesterday, it is working for the last 2
(
in rows 679 and 744) but not the first 2 (in rows 413 and 645).
Because of the same problems as yesterday, I thought maybe something was
wrong with the original formatted data on the dataprior sheet, so I
formatted
those cells all the same, but no change in the result.
My data is in rows 3:1000 on the data prior and data sheet. Here are the
formulas I'm using on the check sheet:
In A3, dragged to A1000:
=IF('Data Prior'!H3="","",IF('Data Prior'!H3="No Longer Here",ROW(),""))
In B3, dragged to B1000:
=IF(ROW(A3)COUNT(A:A),"",INDEX('Data
Prior'!$A$3:$A$1000,SMALL(A:A,ROW())))

Also, this might be the weird part. The references for the data sheet (new
employees) is doing the same thing. Giving the correct results for the
last 2
(in rows 595 and 608), but not in rows 549 and 514.
I entered these formulas on the check sheet in columns C & D, with these
dragged to 1000:
In C3, =IF(Data!H3="","",IF(Data!H3="New Employee",ROW(),""))
In D3,
=IF(ROW(C3)COUNT(C:C),"",INDEX(Data!$A$3:$A$1000, SMALL(C:C,ROW())))

I'm perplexed as to why it works great with the upper range data, but not
the lower range. Also, it's just a cooincidence that both data and data
prior
have 4 incidents. Each could be different on different weeks of data
download.

Thanks,

Steve
