Hi All,

My issue is probably simple, but Im in a brain fog!

I have 2 columns, in A, I have a list of lesson numbers, and in B a list of unique subject IDs.
Example
11.1
11.2
11.3
21.4
21.5
31.6
31.7
11.8
11.9
21.10

What I want to do is return only those subject IDs for a specific lesson.

So example, on a second tab,

A1 = dropdown for lesson numbers

B1 - B10 = returned lesson IDs

I have tried to find the answer, but every time I do it, it only returns the first hit, so for Lesson 1, Subject 1.1. If I drag down the forumla for 5 cells, expecting to see 1.1, 1.2, 1.3, 1.8 & 1.9, I just get 5 x 1.1.

Please help!!!

I suggest that you update your Account details (or click your user name at the top right of the forum) so helpers always know what Excel version(s) & platform(s) you are using as the best solution often varies by version. (Don’t forget to scroll down & ‘Save’)
