Hi - I need help with search/find specific letter in the column.
ex: Corp A FLR 12345
Corp B Floating 54r53
Corp d 12345 FLT
Co. ZZZ 45 FL

I want to search for FLR and or FLT and or FL and or Floating etc and
return to me with what ever it find that falls in the criterials that
has set. Can someone shed some light?

try:
=IF(ISNUMBER(FIND("FL",A1)),MID(A1,FIND("FL",A1),3 ),IF(ISNUMBER(FIND("Fl",A1)),MID(A1,FIND("Fl",A1), 9),""))
If you only want to know if one of the strings is in the cell:
=COUNT(SEARCH("FL",A1))
That will give you a 1 if the string is in the cell
