I'm making a sheet that organizes from master sheet to 3 seperate sheets. I know how to search and pull from one word but not multiple words and thats what i cant seem to find.

=ArrayFormula(IFERROR(INDEX(Master!$A$1:$A$298, SMALL(IF("BOARDMAN"=Master!$D$1:$D$298, ROW(Master!$A$1:$A$298)-ROW(Master!$A$1)+1), ROW(1:1))),""))

this is my formula that works. but where boardman is i want to have it also search for ECHO, HERMISTON, and a couple others but I can't find how to write that.

Idea is that if on "master" row D1 thru D300 has "x or y or z" then in grid copy the name from corresponding A1-A300 in this square. then next row would say same thing with out copying what is already on the sheet. so currently i can do that for 1 word but i cand find out how to do it with multiple words. i was trying IF(OR but i think i was writing it all wrong if someone could help me out

Does the VLOOKUP table have to be sorted?
No! when you are using an exact match, the VLOOKUP table can be in any order. Best-selling items at the top is actually the best.
I suggest you post a link to a sample file so helpers don't have to recreate all your data for testing. For Sheets, you can almost certainly use a much simpler FILTER formula.
