If you do not want to use IFERROR, you can instead use:
=IF(COLUMNS($E:E)>SUM(--(d<>"")),"",INDEX(d,SMALL(IF(d<>"",COLUMN(d)-CELL("col",d)+1),COLUMNS($E:E))))

Thanks for the reply! However, none of these equations works for me. The first one allows me to enter the formula, but the cell is blank, whereas I would like a formula that when entered in four consecutive cells gives me the first four nonblank text cells within the range I specified.
The second column won't allow me to enter it all due to some sort of error :/
