    Re: Need a formula to extract names from a master list

    Welcome to the forum. You can create a thread for your queries in the "Excel Formulas/Function" section and it is better to attach a sample file for members to work with.

    Tip:

    Attach a sample workbook. Make sure there is just enough data to make it clear what is needed. Include a BEFORE sheet and an AFTER sheet in the workbook if needed to show the process you're trying to complete or automate. Make sure your desired results are demonstrated, mock them up manually if needed. Remember to desensitize the data.

    Click on GO ADVANCED and use the paperclip icon to open the upload window.

    Regards,

    Re: Need a formula to extract names from a master list

    Vlady, thanks for taking time to address my problem. Following your advice I am attaching the workbook with some test data to resolve the issue. Please let me know how I can use one of these functions: IF, VLOOKUP, AND, INDEX or MATCH, etc to develop a nested formula that will automatically pick out names that meet the criteria of: "Age Group", "Active" and "Inactive". The estimated length of liest is about 250 records.
    Thank you for your help.

    Re: Need a formula to extract names from a master list

    I really appreciate your help. The formula is working for Group A for first entry but not for the second entry. One of the criteria that it also need to meet is the column 'E' in sheet S_Data for Active and Inactive. It should only picking out the data that meet the group A and Active criteria. I think a small tweeking may solve this issue. If you can sort this out for me too please. Thanks.

    Maybe......

    =IFERROR(INDEX(S_Data!$A$6:$A$20,SMALL(IF((S_Data!$C$6:$C$20=$C$2)*(S_Data!$E$6:$E$20="Yes"),ROW(S_Data!$C$6:$C$20)-ROW($C$6)+1),ROWS(B$5:B5))),"")

    azumi, glad you could step in to address my problem. The change you suggested do work. However, I need similar solution for the "Last" name in "Group A". Can you please take a look at that too? Thanks.

    Azumi and Vlady, I thank you both for helping out. Since I am not so good with the Excel tricks I would stil ask either one of you to advise me regarding best way, I should copy paste the formula for the other groups in the workbook without running into any further issues. Thanks a lot.
