I have a group of 10 people doing 5 roles in a spreadsheet. I would like a cell to contain the five people NOT doing a role. So the formula would check the five cells, compare with a reference containing all ten initials, and list the initials of people not in a role.

Hello,

If you need to insert 5 names in a single cell .. you will have to concatenate the results of your formula ..

Hope this will help

Not a formula.
The 10 names are in D1:D10
The 5 names of the participants are in E1:E5
Result is in F1
Change references as required.
Code:
Sub Maybe()
Dim c As Range
    For Each c In Range("D1:D10")
        If WorksheetFunction.CountIf(Range("E1:E5"), c.Value) = 0 Then Range("F1").Value = Range("F1").Value & " " & c.Value & ","
    Next c
Range("F1").Value = Mid(Range("F1").Value, 2, Len(Range("F1")) - 2)
End Sub

If you have a later ver. of Excel with the TEXTJOIN function, you could use something like this.

This is an array function and must be entered with CTRL-SHIFT-ENTER.
