thank you :) I guess I should have gone a little further with this I'm
trying
to find a word in some text in the column so it's more like a few letters,
to
be exact it's OEM

for example
Calibre Micronic OEM Bnd SW

and i need to tag it cuz it has OEM in the text?

Is that possible?
Thanks!

is there a way to say to create a column that displays a Yes or No if
part
of
a field has some text in it

for example if you wanted to tag the ones that had a D in column A

ColumnA Tag
abc N
abde Y
abcd Y
Thanks!
