    Formula to find inactive employees

    Hello:

    please refer to attached sheet.
    I have monthly payroll info for lots of employees and some are in the attached sheet.
    I need to figure out the current inactive employees.
    i would select the start month and end month from drop down list in cell A17 and B17.
    So lets say i have selected A17 as Sep-14 and B17 as Nov-14.
    I need a formula to list in cell A20 download so that if any employee listed in row 1 between these months
    have zero payroll will be treated as inactive.
    I have manually entered inactive employee as shown in cell A19 downwards.

    Please let me know if you have any questions.
    Thanks.

    Riz

    In A19 and copy down

    =IFERROR(INDEX($B$1:$H$1,SMALL(IF((Month>$A$17)*(Month<$B$17)*($B$2:$H$13=0),COLUMN($B$2:$H$13)-COLUMN(B2)+1),ROWS(A$1:A1))),"")

    ...confirmed by pressing CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER to activate the array, not just ENTER. You will know the array is active when you see curly braces { } appear around your formula. If you do not CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER you will get an error or a clearly incorrect answer. Press F2 on that cell and try again.

    Formula didn't work because you did not adjust ranges.

    Please see attached.
