Hi,
I have the data like the following. ABAACADAM I would like to find whther the letter "B" is present in it or not. So, I used FIND("B",F25) which returned me 2. but, my objective is to find "B","C","D","W". say for eg, if B is not present then the letter "C" should be searched and the occurence/position has to be returned. The order of precedence should be maintained for the letters to be searched. i.e., if B is not found, search for C, if not found, search for D and if not found search for W. if nothing is present I should place 0(zero) in the resultant cell. Is there any simple solution for this task? thanks Easwara |
