Hi, i've been trying for weeks to get an index match to result the the date and the manufacturer for when the object expires with no gaps.

Her is the initial table, i have shrunk this as the actual one is 88 company's by 36 manufacturers;

Manufacturer1Manufacturer2Manufacturer3
Company 11/2/20161/12/2016-
Company 2-1/8/20161/1/2018
Company 31/11/2016-1/1/2017
Company 41/7/20161/6/2016-

<colgroup><col style="width: 100px"><col width="100"><col width="100"><col width="100"></colgroup><tbody>
</tbody>

I would like the formula to return the manufacturer and the date of expiry in the table below, the number of columns can increase, but the idea is to remove the gaps and show differing remaining terms across different tabs

Company 1Manufacturer1 01/02/2016Manufacturer2 01/12/2016
Company 2Manufacturer2 01/08/2016Manufacturer3 01/01/2018
Company 3Manufacturer1 01/11/2016Manufacturer3 01/01/2017
Comapny 4Manufacturer1 01/07/2016Manufacturer2 01/06/2016

<colgroup><col style="width: 100px"><col width="156"><col width="156"></colgroup><tbody>
</tbody>

This result i typed out but would be too time consuming to do manually per month.

Any help will be much appreciated

Many Thanks

Convert text numbers to real numbers
Select a column containing text numbers. Press Alt+D E F to quickly convert text to numbers. Faster than "Convert to Number"
Maybe something like this.
This is an array formula and must be entered with CTRL-SHIFT-ENTER (command-return on MAC)
Formula in B9 of the example can just be copied down and across if you are careful on how you lock the cell references.

Thank you very very much, it works perfectly.
Is it possible to make it date specific, ie if the terms expire in 3 months or less?

This would return value for dates that are equal to or greater than today and less than or equal to 3 months from today.
