When you say "copy this down", where do you mean to copy it down to?

Thanks

Hi,

Please try the following

First of all kindly arrange your data in range A1:B6 instead of A2:B6.

In cell D7, enter TRUE. In cell E7, enter the following array formula
(Ctrl+Shift+Enter)

=IF(ISERROR(INDEX($D$1:$E$5,SMALL(IF($E$1:$E$5=$D$ 7,ROW($E$1:$E$5)),ROW(1:1)),1)),"",INDEX($D$1:$E$5 ,SMALL(IF($E$1:$E$5=$D$7,ROW($E$1:$E$5)),ROW(1:1)) ,1))

Copy this down

In cell E11, enter the following formula

E7&E8&E9

Hope this solves your problem. If you have any further queries, please feel
free to contact me at

Sorry, I originally posted this in wrong discussion group (programming). I
would like to do this using existing Excel functions (non UDF).

Can anybody tell me how to do a conditional concatenate. I have to columns
of data. Column A has numbers: 1-5 (A2:A6). Column B has booleans:
TRUE/FALSE (B2:B6)

A B
1 TRUE
2 FALSE
3 TRUE
4 FALSE
5 TRUE

in B7 I want to do an conditional concatenate using "&" character on column
A using the booleans in column B. The result would like like this: &1&3&5.
Note there is a "&" before the first number as well.

Thanks
