The Criteria is supposed to give a highest rating for what data is entered,
so in the case of BC=A this would overwrite if there is also a C & a D in the
data.
As far as the A criteria goes, I need it to basically say if theres an A in
the data report A (but im unsure how this would be added into all the other
formula script) I suspect I need an IF formula or an AND formula.

Can you help?

Need further info as to what determines final results. For instance, in your
example you say that the result is A because it contains BC. But it also
contains CD and BD, so why does the BC combo win? If A result is higher
priority (meaing if BC is found, disregard other combinations), why even
bother with AB, AC, ABC, etc, as it appears an A alone = A result.

Hey guys,

I need your wisdom as this is driving me mental:

I need to compile a list of results for supplier categories. There are only
4 Categories A,B,C,D.
Column D can have multiple results of a mixture of A,B,C,D.
What I need is to get a result in column E that is for the following
criteria if the cells in Column D have any of the (and could be a mixture)
following results:
A=A
AB=A
ABC=A
ABCD=A
BC=A
BD=B
CD=C
BCD=A

So for example if a supplier had 6 cells next to it containg C,D,B,D,C,D
this would then be an A Result as from the six cells there are a B & C entry.

Bit messy I know.
Any thoughts would help.
