Ooops!

I didn't scroll down far enough to see that you had already suggested
"Another:".

=isnumber(search("apple",a1)
or
=isnumber(find("Apple",a1))

=Find() is case sensitive.
=Search() is not.

Another:
=countif(a1,"*apple*")0
(also not case sensitive)

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to search for text?
For example, Apple (93) in cell A1,
I would like to search for any text including Apple in cell A1,
It should return True in cell B1, because the text Apple is included in
cell
A1.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thank you very much
Eric
