How about selecting column A
Edit|Find
What: HR

To see if the function is working ok (but that you didn't notice that it was
there).

Hi,

I'm sorry but it's still not working.
It returns HR all the time.

Is there another function that can be used?

Thanks.

To return HR if HR exists in the array:

=IF(COUNTIF(A:A,"*HR*"),"HR","No HR")

Thanks for this but it doesn't seem to work.
What I would like is for the function to return HR if HR exists in the array.
Your suggestion does not seem to recognise when HR or Human resource exists
in the array.

Any other suggestions?

Thanks.

One way;

=COUNTIF(A:A,"*HR*") + COUNTIF(A:A,"*Human resource*")
