VLOOKUP MATCH INDEX two conditions / criterias text and date
 

In Sheet1 I have a table with 5000 rows and 30 columns. I have simplifiede it
he

A B C D E
F
Prod Categ. Descr. Code 1 Date Status
R GS Red X 12.05.2008 Stopped
B GS Yellow X 13.05.2008 Running
E RG Green X Running
X RG Blue X 10.05.2008 Stopped
H JG Blue X 08.01.2008 Stopped
F KG Red X 04.04.2008 Running
....5000 rows down...

In Sheet2 I need a table with extracted data from Sheet1 based on two
criterias: The Status from col.F is "Running", and the date in col.E has been
filed in. I don't need all 30 columns, so I have selected column A, B, C. The
result would then be like this:

Product Product category Description
B GS Yellow
F KG Red
....filled 50 rows down...

I don't think I can use a VLOOKUP as the data are not sorted accending, and
there are two criterias. I believe I need an INDEX / MATCH formula. I have
read http://www.contextures.com/xlFunctions02.html but I could't convert it
to my use. Can anyone help? One array formula in one cell filling 50 rows
down in Sheet2 would be perfect. Formulas copied out in Sheet2 A2:C50 would
also be OK.

=IF(ISERROR(SMALL(IF((Sheet1!$E$1:$E$50<"")*(Shee t1!$F$1:$F$50="Running"),ROW(Sheet1!$A$1:$A$50),"" ),ROW($A1))),"",
INDEX(Sheet1!A$1:A$50,SMALL(IF((Sheet1!$E$1:$E$50< "")*(Sheet1!$F$1:$F$50="Running"),ROW(Sheet1!$A$1 :$A$50),""),ROW($A1))))

It is an array formula, so commit with Ctrl-Shift-Enter,

Copy acroos 3 columns and down as far as you need.

I tried the Pivot Table, but I need the data shown as a table - with no
blanks. A Pivot Table groups all values in the first column, then the next,
etc. This leaves empty spaces on the left side, gradually reducing as you
move towards right. I have no data to put in the data field in the Pivot
Table. All my fields has to be put in the "row area" of the Pivot Table. I
have one version of this, but it doesen't look very nice, and I cant sort it
decending on one of the "row-fields". I have hidden all "totals".

Thank you Bob. This works great. One problem. I need to sort Sheet2, col.C,
but it will not sort. Is this due to the: ROW($A...)? Is there any way
around? The data in Sheet2 are constantly changing and the data in col.C
should be sorted frequently.

Not, it is not sorted because you are extracting in the order in appears in
Sheet1.

I solved this by "cheating" the pivot table. I inserted a row-field to the
left (col.A) with a unique serial No. As a result the pivot table has no
longer got grouped data display. I also use VBA for automatic update and
sorting of the pivot table result. I'm OK with this for now. Thank you All !
