    Make a Dynamic List & Ignore Blank Cells

    Hi Guys
    Having some trouble making a dynamic list without blank cells.

    I have made a quick 20 second YouTube video of my request
    https://youtu.be/bL2LR5FlCJ8

    I cant upload my excel workbook for some reason even when using the manage attachments, just says upload failed so other than the video I cant offer much else to help you guys out.

    any help greatly appreciated.

    Re: Make a Dynamic List & Ignore Blank Cells

    so, assuming your list begins in A2 and goes down from there, I've had luck with this formula which will create a distinct list and omit blanks...
    =IFERROR(INDEX($A$2:$A$15,MATCH(0,INDEX(COUNTIF(B$1:B1,$A$2:$A$15&""),),0))&"","")
    the section COUNTIF(B$1:B1 needs to begin one row above the data
