Look up range, return to other columns

I wonder if anyone could give me a formula to look up the range in C and return the data in B to N & O as attached please. :-) T.I.A.
I am missing something here?

Hi

In N1
=TRANSPOSE((UNIQUE(C2:C4,FALSE)))

In N2 copied to O2
=FILTER($B$2:$B$4,$C$2:$C$4=G2)

However this is clearly a much simplified example and probably doesn't represent the size of your actual data. We often find that when we give an answer to what is a trivial non representative example when the solution is used with the real world data it doesn't work because of factors like string length and other stuff which is important but hasn't been mentioned.

Therefore upload your real workbook (or at least a cut down copy) so that we can consider a real world question. It strikes me that a Pivot Table may be a better option.

with N1="bb", do you want to find "hello" in O1 or N2 ?

How would you expect the output to look? At the moment you essentially have a 2 dimensional range which you want to transpose with unique items in a column resulting as unique items in a row, and underneath the result columns you list the column B items. IT's not clear how a 3rd column A is to be shown

I need to see the result. Please add and reupload.

In I2

=IFERROR(INDEX($B$2:$B$15,AGGREGATE(15,6,ROW($A$1:$A$100)/($A$2:$A$15=$I$1),ROWS($1:1))),"")

in J2

=IFERROR(INDEX($B$2:$B$15,AGGREGATE(15,6,ROW($A$1:$A$100)/($A$2:$A$15=$j$1),ROWS($1:1))),"")

copy both down

sorry for delay. Using Filter wont work on my laptop.

If you have 365 as your profile shows then there's no reason why the new SPILL functions like FILTER won't work.
