match a word in a cell and copy anoher cell in the same row
Hi - sorry another question from me today!
Is there a formula or way to achieve the following please I want to search through a column (say column B) containing both words and numbers to see if any cell in that column contains a specific word if it does I want the corresponding cell in column A (same row) to copy into a thirds column. Hope this makes sense -- Thanks Lise |

The below formula would return value of ColA if the text in ColB contains the
word BK. Copy the formula to C1 and copy down as required Col A Col B Col C John BK1234 =IF(ISERROR(SEARCH("BK",B1)),"",A1) Mary BK4563 Joe BK5356 Maria AB1234 If this post helps click Yes --------------- Jacob Skaria "Lise" wrote: Hi - sorry another question from me today!
