    Help needed to advance an existing formula

    Hello everyone;

    Not too long ago one of you helped me with a beautiful formula to plus/minus digits equaling a specific value, with a TRUE/FALSE result:
    =OR(ABS(Y8-Y11)=ABS(30),ABS(Y8+Y11)=ABS(30))

    I use it to identify two numbers from several rows of digits to equal a specific value. My data is setup with “conditional formatting” to highlight
    the digits the formula finds. Now I want to take it a little further. I’d like a formula which copies these two highlighted digits to two new cells.

    It does not matter if the new formula is a modified version of my present formula or if its a separate formula; placed into the new cells my
    highlighted digits would occupy.

    I hope this is possible and thank you in advance for reviewing my post.
