Array Multiple criteria

I have an array that is returning the row number of a matched criteria but I need to be able to return the row number of multiple criteria.

Here is the code:
=IF(ROWS(C$2:C2)<=SUM(COUNTIF(A$2:A$21,{"x","d","a","n"})),SMALL(IF(A$2:A$21="a",ROW(A$2:A$21)-ROW(A$2)+2),ROWS(C$2:C2)),"") use CTRL+SHFT+ENTER

As you can see, the data is entered into column A. This array is dragged down column C. Right now it only returns if the data in column A is an "a".

I want it to return the row numbers of "x", "d", & also "n".

I tried an OR statement after the SMALL, like this:

SMALL(IF(or(A$2:A$21="a",A$2:A$21="x",A$2:A$21="d",A$2:A$21="n"),ROW(A$2:A$21)-ROW(A$2)+2),ROWS(C$2:C2))

But this does not work. Any ideas would be great! Thanks

Move date out one month or year
Use =EDATE(A2,1) for one month later. Use EDATE(A2,12) for one year later.

Shorter and more effective with IsNumber/Match...

Control+shift+enter, not just enter:
Code: 
=IF(ROWS(C$2:C2)<=SUM(COUNTIF(A$2:A$21,{"x","d","a","n"})),
   SMALL(IF(ISNUMBER(MATCH(A$2:A$21,{"x","d","a","n"},0)),

Array-formula in C2 copied down

=IF(ROWS(C$2:C2)<=SUM(COUNTIF(A$2:A$21,{"x","d","a","n"})),SMALL(IF(((A$2:A$21="a")+(A$2:A$21="x")+(A$2:A$21="d")+(A$2:A$21="n")),ROW(A$2:A$21)-ROW(A$2)+2),ROWS(C$2:C2)),"")

Ctrl+Shift+Enter

Control+shift+enter, not just enter:
Code: 
=IF(ROWS(C$2:C2)<=SUM(COUNTIF(A$2:A$21,{"x","d","a","n"})),
   SMALL(IF(ISNUMBER(MATCH(A$2:A$21,{"x","d","a","n"},0)),
    ROW(A$2:A$21)-ROW(A$2)+2),ROWS(C$2:C2)),"")
Click to expand...

This code works too and yes does appear more straight forward. Thanks

Hi Aladin,

I also thought about
ISNUMBER(MATCH
but i supposed that my way was faster...

As you are saying that this is more efffective, it seems that i was wrong...

Hi Marcelo,

IsNumber/Match will be faster; Also easily extendible:

ISNUMBER(MATCH(Range,List,0))

So, I was excited to have this spiffy, compact formula but something is wrong because nowthe processing time drags so badly that it is impossible for OpenOffice users to even use this workbook. (Unfortunately my office has people using both Excel & OO so I have to design things to consider both).

RECAP:

I have a huge list (over 15000) rows of surcharges based on country-pair
I need to look at the list and match:
  • country-to-country
  • country-to-"all"
  • "all"-to-country
  • "all"-to-"all"
This is the reason I wanted the code to match 4 criteria and return the row numbers of the matches so I can use them to refer to data in columns of those rows. It does so beautifully but the process time is a killer.

Can anyone think of a waaaaaaay more efficient way to do this? Thanks
