Contains or Includes
I'm trying to create a mailing list and have a list containing Mr, Ms, Miss,
Mrs, Dr, etc. Some names have no salutations. I want to use a macro that looks for the first name if and after one of these surnames occurs. I tried multiple IF's, as below? =IF(LEFT(A31,3)="Mrs","Mrs",IF(LEFT(A31,4)="Miss", "Miss",IF(LEFT(A31,2)=OR("Mr","Ms","Dr"),LEFT(A31, 2),""))) The frst part works for Mrs * Miss, but the OR section gives me a #Value error. I there a better way? Jim Berglund |
