Extract information
Hi,
I am looking to extract all values in a column that match a criteria. I have been using the FILTER function to do this easily in a system with Office 365 access but I am trying to do a similar action in a Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2016 account and it doesn't work. Is there an alternative function or feature which will help me achieve the same?
For example, I have a set of information under Country A with two columns the id number and the measurements. What I am looking for is : When I enter the id number in a search tab, it pulls all the measurements associated (not just one).
COUNTRY A
ID MEASURE
1 BBB
2 CCC
3 FFF
1 GGG
1 LLL
So the action would be,
ENTER ID : 1
Expected result :
BBB
GGG
LLL
See the attached sample workbook. The formula is based on How To Extract A Dynamic List From A Data Range Based On A Criteria Without Filters In Excel

HansVogelaar Amazing, this works. Thank you.
I also tried using the aggregate function to receive something similar. They both work. My only concern is, is there a way I can extend this formula to the end of the sheet so it applies to all cells in column (till the last row 1048576). I'm asking because the data I have exceeds 50,000 rows in a lot of cases so I'd like to make sure the manual click and drag to as many as possible can be simplified.
Thanks for your guidance, it is much appreciated!
