Jan 21, 2016 at 23:02 comment added user79865 You can't filter or join a two-dimensional array at once, it has to be one dimension at a time. Add a helper column with =iferror(join("|", filter(E4:H4, len(E4:H4)))), copy it down the rows 4-12, then apply same join-filter logic to the helper column.
Jan 21, 2016 at 22:54 comment added David Is it possible to extend the range from: filter(E4:H4, len(E4:H4 to E:H12? Or is this another question I should ask on the board? I tried just changing the H4 without luck

Jan 20, 2016 at 22:21 comment added David OMG you are the best thing ever! thank you so much!!!!!
Jan 20, 2016 at 22:16 comment added user79865 That's because the regex was case-sensitive: 2h and 2H are different things. I added case-insensitive flag (?i) to it now.

Jan 20, 2016 at 21:58 comment added David I still can not get the 2H to go away when put into the cell but can get the rest to go away, if I put the room 2 in before the room 2H. if I put 2H before room 2 then both will go away

Jan 20, 2016 at 20:56 comment added David Thank you so much for taking the time. Below is a link to how this page is set up utilizing your formula (love it). Patients are dropped into boxes e4:G10. The RN is assigned her rooms: Cell B2 (ie rooms 1 2 3 & hall bed 2H). When the nurse has a pt is room 2, the 2 disappears on bothe the room 2 and the hall 2 (2H). If I could make it so if a nurse's count could keep the H number with the H (for hall bed) then I could see what rooms were still open for that nurse. docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/…
Jan 20, 2016 at 16:41 comment added user79865 Please clarify what was the input in your situation (the original content of B4), because apparently it's not the same as in the question.
Jan 20, 2016 at 15:25 comment added David Thank you for your response and I like what this formula. Is there a way to adjust it a bit? If I have both 2 and 2H added to E4:H4 then both “2s” go away leaving just the H ib B4. Is there a way to do this? Thanks once again for the answer you have given thus far. It has helped tremendously
