Ans. 1

A workaround way by using an unused range AH27:BM50:

1] Select A27:AF50 >> Format Painter , paste to AH27:BM50

2] Un-merge A27:AF50

3] Dragging your Vlookup formula appeared in X8 down to X64

4] Select AH27:BM50 >> Format Painter , paste back to A27:AF50

5] Delete Format in AH27:BM50

Ans. 2

In "Error Sheet" A2, formula copy down :

=IFERROR(INDEX(vlookup!E$8:E$64,AGGREGATE(15,6,(ROW(U$8:U$64)-ROW(U$8)+1)/ISERROR(vlookup!U$8:U$64)/(vlookup!E$8:E$64>0),ROWS($1:1))),"")

Regards
Bosco

Hi,

1] I think the copy down formula obstructed by the GIF pictures.

2] Try to hide all GIF pictures by :

Double click anyone GIF picture >> Picture Tool Format >> click Selection Pane >> click Hide All >> OK

This worked in my Excel 2016.

3] Then, continue the copy format, un-merge cells and copy down formula work... etc. as per post # 4

Regards
Bosco
