Hi
Let's assume rank items in Sheet1 are in column A, and you don´t have any
headers in sheet A (as follows from your message), you have 2 additional
columns (Col1 and Col2) in your table, and the number of filled rows in
Sheet1 is less than 100.
Add a column to left of your table in Sheet1 - it will be new column A now.
Into Sheet1!A1 enter the formula like
=IF(B1="","",B1 & ":" & COUNTIF(B$1:B1,B1))
, and copy the formula down for at least for all rows in your table.
Hide added column.
On sheet Sheet2, p.e. to cell A1 apply data validation list with choices 1
to 5 (ranks). Select a value for a rank.
Into range A3:B3 enter headings ("Col1", "Col2")
Into cell A4 enter the formula (adjust lookup range to real one)
=IF(ISERROR(VLOOKUP($A$1 & ":" &
ROW()-3,Sheet1!$A$1:$D$100,3,0)),"",VLOOKUP($A$1 & ":" &
ROW()-3,Sheet1!$A$1:$D$100,3,0))
Into cell B4 enter the formula
=IF(A4="","",VLOOKUP($A$1 & ":" & ROW()-3,Sheet1!$A$1:$D$100,4,0))
Copy both formulas down for some reasonable amount of rows.
Now, when you select any rank value in Sheet2!A1, according rows (except
rank column) from Sheet1 are displayed immediately.
