sorry, forgot the most important

the following array-entered formula:
=OFFSET($A$1,MIN(IF(ISNUMBER(FIND("BW",$A$1:$A$10, 1)),ROW($A$1:$A
$10),""))-1,2)

should bring required result

array-enter this formula i.e. with CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER instead of using
just ENTER
if you enter this formula correctly curly brackets {} will show
(adjust A1:A10 to suit)

pls click YES if this post helped you

I need to use vlookup but the problem is that my cell contains a
bigger text string.
For e.g. cell text is CL BW 205
I want to use vlookup with BW which will return corresponding value
from the same row, 3rd col.

Is there any way to do this with a formula.
