I've got a large table of values, 5000+ rows long, and about 20 columns wide.
In that table are multiple items with the same partner name. I need to pull all of the entries out of that table for a specific partner. There may be anywhere from 1 to 20 occurrences of that partner name in the table.
I'm trying to do this WITHOUT array formulas. (Because of the large amount of memory used by arrays, Excel keeps crashing on me.) My data looks like this:
<tbody>
</tbody>
On another tab, in cell AK10, I need to be able to select Subway from my list of partners and get the three matches for Subway in the above table in rows 2, 4, and 7 to show starting in cells AK11, AK12, and AK13. Or I need to be able to select Long John Silvers and get the one result that's here in row 3 displayed in cell AK11.
I hope I'm explaining that clearly.
With arrays, this should be a fairly easy task. However, is there a sensible way to do this using only formulas, no arrays?
Thanks in advance for your ideas!
