Formula that selects value from list in sequence order
Try this...
K4 = formula to count how many records meet the condition:
=COUNTA(I5:I149)
Enter this array formula** in K5 and copy down until you get blanks:
=IF(ROWS(K$5:K5)<=K$4,INDEX(P$5:P$149,SMALL(IF(I$5 :I$149<"",ROW(P$5:P$149)),ROWS(K$5:K5))-ROW(P$5)+1),"")
** array formulas need to be entered using the key combination of
CTRL,SHIFT,ENTER (not just ENTER). Hold down both the CTRL key and the SHIFT
key then hit ENTER.

I have a series of text data entries in P5:P149.
I also have data in some of the cells in Column I.
In Column K, I want to select the data from Column P in sequential order,
IF
there is data in Column I. If there is not data in Column I, I want it to
advance to the next time data appears in Column I, without skipping the
selection order of Column P.
Hope that makes sense? Thanks!
