Default Search Multiple columns for criterion asterisk (*) and Return Numeric Label

Hi All,

I would like to search multiple columns for criterion asterisk (*) and Return
across a single Row Multiple Numeric Labels that MATCH the criterion on their
respective Row.

1. The criterion is an asterisk * (multiplication sign) housed in cell A2
2. The data to be searched for criterion is housed in columns U2:Y60
3. The Numeric Labels to be returned are housed in column T2:T60
4. To search for criterion "~**" (Tilde ** in quotation marks)

Sample Data Layout:
Col"T" Col"U" Col"V" Col"W" Col"X"
Col"Y"
1
2
3 X
4 **
5
6 **
7 * **
8 X
9 **
10 *
11 * *
12 *
13
14 **
15 X


Expected Results:
Numeric Label has criterion asterisk on its row. Return Numeric Labels across
a row :
4 6 7 9 10 11 12 14

Thanks
Sam
