If Formula
I have a list of Branches
Example: Birmingham Tuscaloosa (Satellite) Irondale (Satellite) Pelham (Satellite) Richmond I need to seperate all the ones are Satellites to ones that are not. I tried an IF statement in the colum next to it. =IF(B2=("*"&"(Satellite)"),1,2) to code them 1 if it is true and 2 if it not. It needs a wildcard and the * does not work for some reason. Is this the right formual or is there a different one that I should be using? I tested and it works only if the cell has exactly what I have in the cell. Can anyone help me out. -- Josh Frazier Communications Manager Brooke Chase Associates, Inc. 1543 Second Street €¢ Suite 201 €¢ Sarasota, FL 34236 Phone (941) 358-3111 €¢ Fax (941) 358-3311 |

If Formula
Probably best to use RIGHT to extract the data, testing if there is a bracket
at the end i.e. =IF(RIGHT(B2,1)=")",1,2) "Joshua Frazier" wrote: I have a list of Branches Example: Birmingham Tuscaloosa (Satellite) Irondale (Satellite) Pelham (Satellite) Richmond I need to seperate all the ones are Satellites to ones that are not.
