Question Return string of matched occurrences

I have a workbook with two worksheets. One contains a list of classes (a number value, which may be a decimal like 34.5) and the names of the students. The other has notes on the students.

In the second worksheet I would like to have a column that shows the classes in which the student has participated (see Column-E in the example image).



The class number and names are usually sorted in ascending order. It would be good, but not required, if this were not a dependency on any formula working. I'd prefer not to use VBA, if at all possible.

Is this possible, and if so then how?

Thanks in advance,
Andrew

Thumbs up

Never mind. I found a solution to my problem. I was unaware of the TEXTJOIN function.
