Retrieve certain data from a list

Hi all,

Maybe this is simple, but I couldn't find the workaround.

I have a long list (it's not dynamic -i.e. doesn't grow- but each cell is linked to data from another sheet) that looks like this;

text a
0
0
0
text b
text c
0
text d
0
0
etc..

As the external data is completed, the cells with zero will contain "text n"

I need to be able to "re-do" a "NEW LIST" so that it looks like this (eliminate the zeroes and spaces in the middle);

text a
text b
text c

Any ideas?
Couldn't find a similar problem in a previous post.

Thanks in advance.
Cheers,
G

A1:A11 houses a relevant sample.

D1, just enter:
Code:
=COUNTIF(A2:A11,"?*")

D2: NEW DATA

D3, control+shift+enter, not just enter, and copy down:
Code:
=IF(ROWS($D$3:D3)<=$D$1,INDEX($A$2:$A$11,
   SMALL(IF(1-($A$2:$A$11=0),IF(LEN($A$2:$A$11)>0,
    ROW($A$2:$A$11)-ROW($A$2)+1)),ROWS($D$3:D3))),"")

Enter this formula in D2. This will return the count of records that meet the criteria, cells that contain a TEXT entry.

=COUNTIF(A2:A11,"*")

Enter this array formula** in E2. This will extract the data you're interested in.

=IF(ROWS(E$2:E2)>D$2,"",INDEX(A:A,SMALL(IF(ISTEXT(A$2:A$11),ROW(A$2:A$11)),ROWS(E$2:E2))))

** array formulas need to be entered using the key
combination of CTRL,SHIFT,ENTER (not just ENTER).
Hold down both the CTRL key and the SHIFT key
then hit ENTER.

Copy down until you blanks.

If you'd like to try it with a macro ...
Code:
Sub testcode()
Dim x
With Range("D:D")
    Range("A:A").Copy .Item(1)
    x = .Replace("0", vbNullString, xlWhole)
    .SpecialCells(4).Delete
End With
End Sub

Geez!

Spelling errors are one thing but leaving out entire words is taking it to the next level! :banghead:

The sentence should say: Copy down until you get blanks.
