Another question regarding matching names and adding spaces
I have a new question that goes along with this. Is there a way to expand on
the cell selection? Besides the names in Column B, I also have data in Columns C, D, E, & F that I need to keep with the names in Column B. Thanks Again!

Is there a way or a formula to match the names in column B to the corresponding names in column A, move the name in B to be in the same row as the name in A, and to insert blank cells into B where there are no names to match A? Example: A B Abe Abe Brad Brian Brian Chris Chris changed to: A B Abe Abe Brad Brian Brian Chris Chris Thanks Try this in C1 =IF(ISNA(VLOOKUP(A1,B:B,1,0)),"",VLOOKUP(A1,B:B,1) ) and copy down to give the column you want. xt . |

A simple index/match will deliver all to you ..
Let's say your data in cols B to E, where col B = names to be matched with the base list in col A cols C to E are data associated with the names in col B Put in say, G1: =IF(ISNA(MATCH($A1,$B:$B,0)),"",INDEX(B:B,MATCH($A 1,$B:$B,0))) Copy G1 across to J1, fill down as far as required.
