    I dont see the logic of what you want, please explain how you arrive at your answer?
    1. Use code tags for VBA. [code] Your Code [/code] (or use the # button)
    2. If your question is resolved, mark it SOLVED using the thread tools
    3. Click on the star if you think someone helped you

    Re: List Words from a list!

    Enter this array formula** in A1:

    =IFERROR(INDEX(A$6:A$13,SMALL(IF(A$6:A$13<>"",ROW(A$6:A$13)),ROWS(A$1:A1))-ROW(A$6)+1),"")

    ** array formulas need to be entered using the key
    combination of CTRL,SHIFT,ENTER (not just ENTER).
    Hold down both the CTRL key and the SHIFT key
    then hit ENTER.

    Copy down until you get blanks.
