Formula assistance

Hello, 

I was wondering if there was formula I could use that would essentially list out any person where the calREDIE DI# column is blank (Column Au would blank), and fill each row (Photo below that ) by last name first name and date of birth in each cell combined. example " Doe, John 7/7/1924"

    Yes, edit the second argument to FILTER:

     

    =LET(
        missing, FILTER(Linelist!B2:D4, (Linelist!AU2:AU4 = "")*(LineList!B2:B4<>"")),
        TAKE(missing, , 1) & ", " & CHOOSECOLS(missing, 2) & " " &
            TEXT(TAKE(missing, , -1), "mm/dd/yyyy")
    )

        Try a variant of this (adjust the ranges):

         

        =LET(
            missing, FILTER(B2:D5, AU2:AU5 = ""),
            TAKE(missing, , 1) & ", " & CHOOSECOLS(missing, 2) & " " &
                TEXT(TAKE(missing, , -1), "mm/dd/yyyy")
        )
