Default Automatic List Generation

It does. I've created some work arounds and it now works. I appreciate your
help.

So far, the only way I get that error is when cells in Col_B look blank, but
actually contain an apostrophe.

Because they are non-blank, they are counted by the COUNTA function.

BUT because the also equal "", they're row numbers are multiplied by
10^10...resulting in a row_ref in the INDEX file that could not possibly
exist. Hence the error.

Do you have anything like that situation existing?

Sorry to bother you Ron but I'm running into an error that does not make
sense. Sheet1 in column A is the product listing, column B is where items are
selected with an "x". I have this formula in A1 of Sheet2 in as many rows as
equal Sheet1:

=IF(COUNTA(Sheet1!$B$1:$B$58)<ROW(),"",INDEX(Sheet 1!$A$1:$A$58,SUMPRODUCT(SMALL(ROW(Sheet1!$B$1:$B$5 8)+(Sheet1!$B$1:$B$58="")*10^10,ROW()))))

The formula works but is throwing out #REF errors at the bottom of the list
generated on Sheet2 as many time as items have Not been selected on Sheet1.
For example, 7 our of 10 items on Sheet1 are selected. Sheet2 lists those 7
items plus 3 #REF items.

How do I get rid of the #REF listing. Any comments are appreciated. Thanks

One last comment:
You don't need to use Ctrl+Shift+Enter to commit that formula...it's not an
array formula. :\

Sorry for the confusion.
Yes!...the Sheet3 references should be Sheet1
(I just gave myself a newspaper over the snout for forgetting to correct
that before posting)

So...on sheet2

A1:
=IF(COUNTA(Sheet1!$B$1:$B$20)<ROW(),"",INDEX(Sheet 1!$A$1:$A$20,SUMPRODUCT(SMALL(ROW(Sheet1!$B$1:$B$2 0)+(Sheet1!$B$1:$B$20="")*10^10,ROW()))))

(Remember to Ctrl+Shift+Enter that array formula)


Does that help?

I'm a little thrown off. Do you mean Sheet1 where you list Sheet3? I'm not
getting any values. Thanks

I have a spreadsheet that lists all of our products individually in the first
column. The next column is for selecting the items wanted. I'd like on a
seperate worksheet to build a list of only those items selected. Is this
possible?
