Help Needed for finding a value
Anyone please tell me in A colum some texts are available with Question Mark
(?) i want to find the cells which are all consist the question mark (?). If i press control + f and mention the question mark (?) for finding the cells which consist the (?) marks but it's goes to all of the cells. I know that ? mark used as an expression and it means the condition of "any character" So it's going to all cells. So please give me a solution like function or using some other keywords to find it in find option. Please send it immediately i want it in urgent basis. Thanks in advance. TGV |

As it is a single wildcard character, if you want to use it in CTRL-F
or CTRL-H then you must preceed it with the tilde symbol, ~ So, Find what: ~? will look for that specific character. Hope this helps.
