    Red face INDEX, MATCH and Return an Array?? Or something like that...

    Hi!

    I'm working with raw data which is split into 'trays' of 96 values (12 columns, 8 rows - See Input Tab). Each tray is separated by some text and blank cells.

    The end user will be able to use a dropdown column next to the raw data to mark each tray with a label ("Tray 1 Read 1", etc). The output tab will then be programmed to display trays in an order that I specify (Tray 1 read 1, tray 1 read 2, etc). The output order never changes but the input order can be completely random.

    I need a formula which is capable of searching for the label "Tray 1 read 1" (can be dynamic or cell ref) in the blue label column and displaying the relevant tray of 96 values as shown in the output tab, bearing in mind that the "tray 1 read 1" tray could be anywhere in the dataset. I was thinking using INDEX/MATCH could do it but I get confused very quickly with this sort of thing. This also must return any blank cells as blank cells and not 0. Nothing set in stone yet so open to any ideas.

    Thanks in advance
