Thanks Chandoo, some great helpful tips here. I'm quite good at Excel (mainly thanks to you!) but I'm always learning. I love the link you gave above to Dynamic Arrays & Spill Ranges, I understand them a bit more now, and can see some uses for them.
I am glad you enjoyed the show Dermot.
Great to see you back! Enjoyed when you first started the podcast and super excited to start listening to you again!
