Add text cell C1 if certain text in B1
Hello,
My spreadsheet is set up like this. B1 C1 Cell phone is 50%. Home is 50 mi. away. 80% was rate at this time. I want to automatically add the text "80% was the rate at this time" in cell C1 only if there is text in cell B1 that says "cell phone". Can anyone help? Thanks |

Try either in C1:
=IF(COUNTIF(B1,"*cell phone*"),"80% was the rate at this time","") =IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH("*cell phone*",B1)),"80% was the rate at this time","") -- HTH, RD ================================================== === Please keep all correspondence within the Group, so all may benefit! ================================================== === "Studebaker" wrote in message ...
