Ok that's great to know, but the problem is that "WALGREENS" or "CVS" or
"Target" are not the only text in the cell so I need a formula that would
work like yours but checks if the cell contains those words?

In F6 paste
=if(E6="WALGREENS",60,if(E6="CVS",60,if(E6="TARGET ",120,"")))' you can
gang
up to 6 if statements together.

Now let's add something else
Here is the formula real
=IF(OR(ISNUMBER(FIND("WALGREENS",E5)),ISNUMBER(FIN D("CVS",A1))),60,"")
Now what I need to do is if the cell contains "WALGREENS" OR "CVS"

return
60
like above, but if it contains "TARGET" return 120 else blank

Thanks
