Hi,
I have a list like below
S.No Fruit Color Weight
1 Apple red 10
2 Orange orange 20
3 Apple red 15
4 Banana yellow 10
5 Peach green 16
6 Apple red 25
Now, I need a list linked into another tab which extracts all apple and orange entries along with their weight. How to do this?
Thanks!
Use this array formula:
=IFERROR(INDEX(Sheet1!A:A,SMALL(IF(Sheet1!$B$2:$B$7={"Orange","Apple"},ROW(Sheet1!$B$2:$B$7)),ROWS(A$2:A2))),"")
in sheet2, A2, copied across and down.
Array Formulae are a little different from ordinary formulae in that they MUST be confirmed in the FIRST CELL ONLY by pressing CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER to activate the array, not just ENTER. After that, the array can be dragged down as normal, to cover the desired range.
You will know the array is active when you see curly brackets { } - or "curly braces" for those of you in the USA, or "flower brackets" for those of you in India - appear around the outside of your formula. If you do not use CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER you will (almost always) get an error message or an incorrect answer. Press F2 on that cell and try again.
Don't type the curly brackets yourself - it won't work...
See sheet.

Thanks a lot Glenn. Can I have a tab where a list is fetched based on certain matching conditions. For example, in your sheet column D is parameter 4. If I add another column with parameter 5, and in that column, there are entries like "good", "bad", etc., can I fetch entries into another tab based on "good"?
1 Apple red 10 good
2 Orange orange 20 bad
3 Apple red 15 good
4 Banana yellow 10 good
5 Peach green 16 good
6 Apple red 25 bad
Can I have the same solution based on the last filter?
Yes. You just need to nest another IF statement:
=IFERROR(INDEX(Sheet1!A:A,SMALL(IF(Sheet1!$B$2:$B$7={"Orange","Apple"},IF(Sheet1!$E$2:$E$7="Good",ROW(Sheet1!$B$2:$B$7))),ROWS(A$2:A2))),"")
Thank you so much Glenn.
But each time I am hitting "Ctrl+shift+enter", it popus up to enter a filename, and then a tab name. What do do?
Or you can do this with a helper column

You need to check that you have copied the sheetnames correctly in your real data. The most likely cause is... if you have spaces in your sheet names:
for example: 2017 - 2018 then you need to use '2017 - 2018' to enable Excel to pick up the corretc sheet.
@Glenn - Thank you so much. It worked. Reps added
@Ankur - Will check your solution as well. Reps added
You're welcome and thanks for the rep.
