    filtering and converting a text table to a single column list

    excel.JPG

    From a table like the one here, how can I generate a list (without spaces) of all the names only? Perhaps filtering by "Mr","Miss","Dr" or something? The result I'm after would be a column on a new sheet that ran:
    Mr James
    Mrs Milly
    Dr McAllister
    Miss Aujard
    Mr Barker
    Mrs Stanley

    or similar.
    Can anyone help with a formula?

    Instead of picture please attach a sample workbook with 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.

    Hi and welcome to the forum

    It will be easier to offer help if you uploaded a sample workbook with your dummy data, and showed examples of your expected outcome
    To attach a file to your post,
    click advanced (next to quick post),
    scroll down until you see "manage file",
    click that and select "add files" (top right corner).
    click "select files" find your file, click "open" click "upload" click 'done" bottom right. click "submit reply"

    Once the upload is completed the file name will appear below the input boxes in this window.
    You can then close the window to return to the new post screen.
    1. Use code tags for VBA. [code] Your Code [/code] (or use the # button)
    2. If your question is resolved, mark it SOLVED using the thread tools
    3. Click on the star if you think someone helped you

    Regards
    Ford

    tabletolist.xlsx

    cool, so sheet1 is the current state of the data, and sheet2 is what I'd like as an output.
