arrayformula not autopopulating
Hello All!

I have searched high and low for a solution to this.

I have a form from which I collect a lot of data. I have included several formulas on the spreadsheet where the data is collected. The formulas were created after the data was collected.

I have recreated this at a smaller scale, where you can see what I am talking about:

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AmK4nfIouLJpdHJoYXAtV1JvR1c2cjgwU2NvM09XUkE

This is what I am doing:

1. In column C I want to fetch the names that correspond to the codes on column B. They are being queried from the 'Names' sheet.

2. Because =query() by itself would not autopopulate the rows below, I tried to use =arrayformula(). It did not work. However, only the first data row performs the query. No =continue() after that.

3. I placed individual =query() calls on B7 through B11, but one code shows odd behavior.

4. =arrayformula() on F1 also did not autopopulate to the rows below. Only the first row performs the calculation.

Your help and recommendations will be greatly appreciated!
