return multiple instances from a range
Firefox on MS 7 64 bit
I have a need to return multiple occurrences of a row cell for each matching value.
Here is the range c2:d7 called 'Jodie'.
C D
2 Frank 1234
3 Jodie 2345
4 Sue 3456
5 Jodie 4567
6 Sam 5678
7 Jodie 6789
I need to have it returned link this
A B
1 Jodie 2345
2 4567
3 6789
I can't use a simply IF statement as I don't want individual blank lines. I've tried 'vlookup("Jodie",Jodie,2, False)' but it returns the 1st matching value on each line. I found a routine that works for Excel athttp://www.get-digital-help. com/2009/10/25/how-to-return- multiple-values-using-vlookup- in-excel/#horizont but the VBA code won't work in the Google Apps Script as I get a "Missing ; before statement. (line 1)". My gut tells me the VBA has to be rewritten in JavaScript but that is above my pay grade. :)
Anyone have an idea how I can do this?
