I see this preview is in Sheets, what I'm trying to do is in excel
User
16/04/2018 - 12:46
I actually got it to work in sheets, but cannot figure it out in excel
User
16/04/2018 - 12:46
the formula is: =QUERY('Harvest Import'!$A$2:$F$435, "select A where (B=C3)")
Excelchat Expert
16/04/2018 - 12:46
Could you please provide me sample data ?
Excelchat Expert
16/04/2018 - 12:47
Function in google sheet and excel desktop are different.
Excelchat Expert

Query () does not work in excel.
Excelchat Expert
16/04/2018 - 12:49

User
16/04/2018 - 12:50
OK, sample data in there. What I'm trying to do is search the data on sheet 1 and copy the data where the info in column B matches the code in Cell C3 on Sheet 3
User
16/04/2018 - 12:50
i guess the Begin and End aren't important for this question, so don't worry about that for now.
User
16/04/2018 - 12:50
I also have a range question as a follow up
Excelchat Expert
16/04/2018 - 12:51

User
16/04/2018 - 01:12
ok that looks right. What's the excel formula?
Excelchat Expert
16/04/2018 - 01:12
=ArrayFormula(INDEX(Sheet1!$A$2:$C$7, SMALL(IF($C$1=Sheet1!$B$2:$B$7, ROW(Sheet1!$B$2:$B$7)-MIN(ROW(Sheet1!$B$2:$B$7))+1, ""), ROW(A1)),COLUMN(A1)))
Excelchat Expert
16/04/2018 - 01:13
This is the formula I have applied, you can see in sheet3
User
16/04/2018 - 01:13
and that will work in excel, not sheets, right?
Excelchat Expert
16/04/2018 - 01:14
Yes
User
16/04/2018 - 01:14

Excelchat Expert
16/04/2018 - 01:15
=INDEX(Sheet1!$A$2:$C$7, SMALL(IF($C$1=Sheet1!$B$2:$B$7, ROW(Sheet1!$B$2:$B$7)-MIN(ROW(Sheet1!$B$2:$B$7))+1, ""), ROW(A1)),COLUMN(A1))

User
16/04/2018 - 01:29
I got it to work, but it's only giving me one row of data, not all the instances
User
16/04/2018 - 01:29
Oh, I have to drag the formula down...

User

I dragged down obviously more rows that I have data for and it gives me a #NUM error, any way to make that go away or no?
User
16/04/2018 - 01:30
I'm happy, just curious about that?
Excelchat Expert
16/04/2018 - 01:30

Excelchat Expert
16/04/2018 - 01:31
=iferror(INDEX(Sheet1!$A$2:$C$7, SMALL(IF($C$1=Sheet1!$B$2:$B$7, ROW(Sheet1!$B$2:$B$7)-MIN(ROW(Sheet1!$B$2:$B$7))+1, ""), ROW(A1)),COLUMN(A1)),"")
User
16/04/2018 - 01:32
Am I just adding that to the front of the other formula?
Excelchat Expert
16/04/2018 - 01:32
Yes, actually formula within iferror
Excelchat Expert
16/04/2018 - 01:32
