Default copying a formula down wards

=INDEX(Proj_code,MATCH(AQ$6,F$7:F$198,0))

the above formula works in that it shows the first match.

As there could be mulitpule records what do I need to do to so when I copy
it down it will bring the next match or 0 if no further matches in the table
it is searching?

Many thanks

Default copying a formula down wards

Hi,

Try this ARRAY formula. ARRAY enter it and it will return the first match,
drag down for the second etc. It will return an error if there isn't a second
match so you could wrap the whole thing =isserror(formula etc

=OFFSET(IF(ROWS(B$7:B7)<=COUNTIF(Proj_code,$E$1),I NDEX($F$7:$F$198,SMALL(IF(Proj_code=$AQ$6,ROW(Proj _code)-ROW($E$1)+1),ROWS(B$7:B7))),""),-6,0)

This is an array formula which must be entered by pressing CTRL+Shift+Enter
and not just Enter. If you do it correctly then Excel will put curly brackets
around the formula {}. You can't type these yourself. If you edit the formula
you must enter it again with CTRL+Shift+Enter.

Default copying a formula down wards

Select the range of cells in which you want the results, say L18:L25.
Assuming you have numeric values in D4:D11 and the corresponding
values to return in E4:E11, enter the following array formula and
press CTRL SHIFT ENTER. You must use CTRL SHIFT ENTER to enter the
formula into an array of cells, rather than a single cell.

=IF(ROW()-ROW(L$18)<COUNTIF(D4:D11,"b"),LARGE(IF(D4:D11="b", E4:E11,0),ROW(INDIRECT("1:"&COUNTIF(D4:D11,"b")))) ,0)

Change the reference to L$18 to the first cell in the results range
that contains the formula. Change the "b" to the value you want to
look up in D4:D11.

This is an array formula, so you MUST press CTRL SHIFT ENTER rather
than just ENTER when you first enter the formula and whenever you edit
it later. If you do this correctly, Excel will display the formula in
the formula bar enclosed in curly braces { }. You don't type in the
braces; Excel puts them there automatically. The formula will not work
correctly if you do not enter it with CTRL SHIFT ENTER. See
www.cpearson.com/Excel/ArrayFormulas.aspx for much more information
about array formulas.

Default copying a formula down wards

Chip, thanks for the reply but :(

below is the formula and my changes but it says too many arquements?? excel
hights the first ",0".

For clarity in cell ref in the hope I have done the correct changes:

AN$9 is the first line/cell for the report results
f7:f198 is the range of value in AQ6 (both text)is to match
b7:b198 is where the value (i.e. PC01) to be return to an9

IF(ROW()-ROW(AN$9)<COUNTIF(F$7:F$198,$AQ$6),LARGE(IF(F$7:F$ 198,$AQ$6,B$7:B$198,0),ROW(INDIRECT("1:"&COUNTIF(F $7:F$198,$AQ$6)))),0)

I do thank you for your help as I am trying to understand the nore indepth
formulas

Try this...

Enter this formula in A1. This will return the count of records that meet
the criteria.

=COUNTIF(F$7:F$198,AQ$6)

Enter this array formula** in B1 and copy down until you get 0s.. This will
extract the records that meet the criteria.

=IF(ROWS(B$1:B1)A$1,0,INDEX(Proj_code,SMALL(IF(F$ 7:F$198=AQ$6,ROW(Proj_code)),ROWS(B$1:B1))-MIN(ROW(Proj_code))+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.

Too many arguments is referring to this part of your formula:

IF(F$7:F$198, $AQ$6, B$7:B$198, 0)

because an IF function only requires 3 arguments. I suspect you meant:

IF(F$7:F$198=$AQ$6,B$7:B$198,0)
