In cell C1 enter the query string

In cell D1 enter the below formula and copy down as required,,Please note
that this is an array formula. You create array formulas in the same way that
you create other formulas, except you press CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER to enter the
formula. If successful in 'Formula Bar' you can notice the curly braces at
both ends like "{=<formula>}"

=IF(ROW(A1)<=COUNTIF($A$1:$A$10,$C$1),INDEX($B$1:$B$10,
SMALL(IF($A$1:$A$10=$C$1,ROW($A$1:$A$10)),ROW(A1))),"")
