    Thumbs down column filtering to match identical numbers

    I have a master column that has 2000 numbers in the list.
    I have a 2nd column that has 400 of the same numbers that exist in the master.
    I need to take the 2nd column and sort it in such a way that the 400 numbers will be in the same row as the matching ones in the master column.

    Assuming A1:A2000 is the master data, and B1:B400 is the sorting data

    C1 = MATCH(B1,A$1:A$2000,0)
    C2 = MATCH(B2,A$1:A$2000,0)
    ...C400


    D1 = INDIRECT("B"&MATCH(ROW(),C$1:C$400,0))
    D2 = INDIRECT("B"&MATCH(ROW(),C$1:C$400,0))
    ...D400

    If you do not want to see those #N/A, use an IF statement and ISERROR, make that "".


    Hope this helps
