What formula would be good for filtering away cells that contain only numbers? One way .. Assume source data in col A, from row1 down Put in B1: =IF(ISERROR(SMALL(C:C,ROW(A1))),"", INDEX(A:A,MATCH(SMALL(C:C,ROW(A1)),C:C,0))) Put in C1: =IF(A1="","",IF(ISNUMBER(A1),"",ROW())) Select B1:C1, fill down until the last row of data in col A Col B should return the required results, all neatly bunched at the top And if there's the possibility of "text" numbers within col A and these are to be treated as numbers (i.e. to be omitted) then we could put instead in C1: =IF(A1="","",IF(ISNUMBER(A1+0),"",ROW())) (Formula in col B unchanged) -- Max Singapore http://savefile.com/projects/236895 xdemechanik --- |
