Hi,

Im not sure I understand this correctly but let me have a try.

In sheet "B", in cell A1 type:

=IF(Sheet1!B1="tshirt",Sheet1!A2,"")

What this formula does is that it checks cell B1 in Sheet1 on the word tshirt. If B1 = tshirt, then the cell where you type this formula in, gets the value of Sheet1!A2, thus the according date. Copy down this formula to the rest of the cells, and you are done

Hope I understood this correctly
