Case-sensitive:
=FIND(A1,B1) Non-case-sensitive =SEARCH(A1,B1) -- Best Regards, Luke M *Remember to click "yes" if this post helped you!* "Stan" wrote: Is there a formula to use in order to confirm the following?

Your specifications are not entirely unambiguous, but perhaps something like: =IF(AND(LEN(A1)0,ISNUMBER(SEARCH(A1,B1))),"Contai ned","Not Contained") --ron |
