Default Sorting and deleting empty cells


To start out I have a spreadsheet with a column of people's names and
then a row accross with various tasks. Then the corresponding
name-to-task cell is marked with a "C" for complete or "R" for
required. What I would like to do is find a way to, the same sheet
further down, create a list with each persons name and the name of the
tasks marked "R". For example:

Name | Tasks
----------------
John | Task#1
------------------
| Task #2
------------------
Joe | Task #2
------------------
| Task #3
etc...

I'm currenty using simple conditinals but found this to be tedious with
over 500 names. And also I would like to find away to eliminate a lot of
the white space (when the conditinal is false display nothing). I was
think of a loop that would look at each of the cells in the row and
then if it was equal to "R" it would display whatever and then go to
the next row. I don't know how complicated this is and I fairly newb
when it comes to macros. Any help and/or alternative ways are very much
appriciated. Feel free to ask questions if you need more clarification.
