Data Validation - List Issue

[gmazza76]

Good Morning,

I have an issue trying to do a multiple list restriction.

I have 3 columns on a seperate sheet ( Names ) as follows
Column A = Call Centre Manager Name
Column B = Manager Name
Column C = Agent Name

I am using the following to choose the manager name but instead of it showing the managers name once it repeats the name as many times as it is in column B. Is there anyway i can change this to just show the manager name once?

=OFFSET(CSMStart,MATCH(E2,CSM,0)-1,1,COUNTIF(CSM,E2),1)

References for above are as follows on "Name" Sheet
CSMStart = A1
CSM = A:A

Is there anyway I can show a full set of team names instead of showing 1 individual?

Many Thanks
Gavin

in E2 copy down, confirm CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER:

=IF(ROWS($C2:$C$2)<=COUNTIF(CSM,$E$1),INDEX($B$2:$B$200,SMALL(IF($A$2:$A$200=$E$1,ROW($C$2:$C$200)-ROW($A$2)+1),ROWS($C$2:$C2))),"")

Good Evening,

Sorry about this but what are the references meant to be in column E?

Cheers

E1 is this part of the formula:
=IF(ROWS($C2:$C$2)<=COUNTIF(CSM,$E$1),INDEX($B$2:$B$200,SMALL(IF($A$2:$A$200=$E$1,ROW($C$2:$C$200)-ROW($A$2)+1),ROWS($C$2:$C2))),"")

And the two Values below are returns from column B
