    need help in fine-tuning a formula that removes blank cells in a column range

    hi!

    I need help in fine tuning a formula that removes blank cells from a column range.

    Problem is that the formula I found somehow tends to output the result 3 times irrespective of the value's actual presence in the range and sorts in the sequence of the value's first appearance in the range.

    Alternately, if someone has a better formula would appreciate if it can be shared.

    Following limitations may please be considered:
    1. No VBA/ Macros please since they are volatile and tend to disable undo option.
    2. No array formulas please (those committed with CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER), since my current solution already uses array formula and that has considerably slowed down calculations. My actual worksheet has about 100,000 cells with the array formula updated on a real time basis.
    3. The blank cells will actually not be blank but will be containing a formula and the cells are blank since the result of their calculation is blank.

    Sample file attached.

    Edit:

    Have uploaded another file called sample file_new.
    It ALMOST contains the solution I need. Only problem is that each value is now appearing uniquely. Any suggestions to make the values appear sequentially in the order they appear and multiple times?

    Regards,

    Naira
