080425 FIND 1 char in cell of any 3 char =True
been having trouble figuring out SEARCH & FIND, trying to find if a
character in a cell is present. do not see any TRUE/FALSE examples, just
a
bunch of errors.
finally have following work in a cond. format:
=SEARCH(A9,$A$2)
where only 1 character/number exists in A9, and multiple chars in $A$2
now need to test A9 if has "H" for e.g.: HLA
actually need to test for multiple characters in A9, e.g.: "X","H"
would use fixed cell to test for, to save space
would use smaller functions to save space, FIND instead of SEARCH, but not
critical
thanks
