A few days ago, I asked about creating a sumif formula that adds the values
in one column for the cells in another column that contain the text string
"outlet".

I got these answers, both of which worked well.

=SUMPRODUCT(ISNUMBER(SEARCH("outlet",A2:A10))*B2:B 10)

=sumif(a:a,"*outlet*",b:b)

My question now is, how would I make this the inverse, i.e does NOT
contain
"outlet"?
