($B$9=$A$2:$A$7)+($C$9=$A$2:$A$7) returns an array

OR($B$9=$A$2:$A$7,$C$9=$A$2:$A$7) returns a single value.

Thanks much for your guide, it is helping out tremendously. I am wanting to alter your code a bit, and it seems like it should work but I am not getting the desired results. I would like to have an if or to check for another value. This is how I assumed it would look, but again, I'm not seeing the desired results. Assume C9 had 124.

=INDEX($A$2:$C$7, SMALL(IF(OR($B$9=$A$2:$A$7, $C$9=$A$2:$A$7), ROW($A$2:$A$7)-MIN(ROW($A$2:$A$7))+1, ""), ROW(A1)),COLUMN(A1))

I would like results for 123 and 124. I however seem to be getting every thing back as a result. What is going wrong? Thanks much for your help!

I think the problem is how you enter the udf.

You can´t copy an array formula returning two or more values.

How to expand the array formula from cell range C9:C11 to C9:C21

1. Select C9:C21
2. Click in formula bar
3. Press and hold Ctrl + Shift
4. Press Enter
5. Release all keys.

Thanks for bringning this to my attention.

Does this formula work?

First of all, thank you VERY much for the superb effort you put in for us Excel newbies to be better!

I am facing one problem in making this array formula run. My data table and output table are on different sheets. While the formula works perfectly when they are both in the same sheet, error is returned when they are on different sheets. Here's my formula that works:

=IFERROR(INDEX($A$2:$E$107, SMALL(IF(Dashboard!$C$6=$A$2:$E$107, ROW($A$2:$A$107)-MIN(ROW($A$2:$A$107))+1, ""), ROW(A1)),COLUMN(A1)),"No More Data Available")

Here's the one that does NOT work:

=IFERROR(INDEX('Business Events'!$B$2:$E$3177, SMALL(IF($C$6='Business Events'!$B$2:$E$3177, ROW('Business Events'!$B$2:$B$3177)-MIN(ROW('Business Events'!$B$2:$B$3177))+1, ""), ROW('Business Events'!B1)),COLUMN('Business Events'!B1)),"No More Data Available")

Data table is in sheet named "Business Events" and output table is in another sheet named "Dashboard". The filtering id is in cell C6 in the sheet "Dashboard".

Please help.

Thanks much!

Im using the "Return multiple values vertically or horizontally (vba)". Right know I can get it to return 3 values in the the cells C9-C11. I have a lot of data to lookup and would like it to return more values vertically (maybe 10 values). When I try to copy the array to the next cells, I either get a error message og it will start returning the same values, is already shown in C9-C11. Can you help me? (Hope the question makes sense)

I thought you copied the array formula horizontally? You are using column(A1) in your formula.

Your example seems to be right.

thanks for the reply,

I have no clue how to adjust it.

Can you give me a sample. lets say in Column B and C there are 100000 rows

Is this the right code for it:
=LEFT(INDEX($C$2:$C$100000,SMALL(IF($E$3=$B$2:$B$100000,ROW($B$2:$B$100000)-MIN(ROW($B$2:$B$100000))+1,""),COLUMN(A1))),11)

need your expert advice,
