What about this? For your first conditional formula...
=ISNUMBER(SEARCH("h*h",A1))
and for your second conditional formula...
=ISNUMBER(SEARCH("h*x",A1))
Note, both of these are case insensitive.

in Conditional Format, trying to shorten many examples of:
=OR(LEFT(CM9,1)="h",RIGHT(CM9,1)="h")
to something like:
=OR(FIND(CM9,"H"),FIND(CM9,"X"))
but cannot get multiple items to be valid in a conditional format. is
there
another way or something doing wrong? thanks.
