Take a look at this link:

That should give you what you need. When you have time, look at other
sections of the sit; it is a FANTASTIC resource.

AppNo -- is a defined name range from sheet 1
winner -- is a defined name range from sheet 2

=IF(ISERR(SMALL(IF(COUNTIF(winners,AppNo)=0,ROW(IN DIRECT("1:"&ROWS(AppNo)))),ROWS($1:1))),"",INDEX(A ppNo,SMALL(IF(COUNTIF(winners,AppNo)=0,ROW(INDIREC T("1:"&ROWS(AppNo)))),ROWS($1:1))))

ctrl+shift+enter, not just enter
copy down as far as needed
