Amber,
If you mean a UDF then you can use the LIKE function in VBA but you need to be more specific. Mike "Amber" wrote: How can I express the following within a function? begins with contains ends with |

Not sure exactly how you want to use these but here's some examples: Does the cell A1 begin with "Bob"? =LEFT(A1,3)="Bob" Does the cell A1 contain "Bob"? =FIND("Bob",A1)0 Does the cell A1 end with "Bob"? =RIGHT(A1,3)="Bob" If you want to refer to another cell, say B1, then it's: =LEFT(A1,LEN(B1))=B1 =FIND(B1,A1)0 =RIGHT(A1,LEN(B1))=B1 cheers, ..o. |

What I am trying to do is do a sumif statement but there are some of the the
line items that I want to not be added. I need to try to figure out how to say that in an expression.... Any help you could give would be great.

Sorry I forgot to add that the items items to exclude would all start
with"600" but are all different. "Amber" wrote: What I am trying to do is do a sumif statement but there are some of the the line items that I want to not be added.

Maybe something like this:
=SUMPRODUCT(--(LEFT(A1:A10,3)<"600"),B1:B10) Biff "Amber" wrote in message ... What I am trying to do is do a sumif statement but there are some of the the line items that I want to not be added.

A1:A10 is the range of cells that contain your line items.
B1:B10 is the range to sum. Maybe you need to post a more descriptive explanation. Biff "Amber" wrote in message ... What do A and B Stand for? "T.

Like this:
A1 = XXXabcZZZ begins with =LEFT(A1,3)="XXX" contains =ISNUMBER(SEARCH("abc",A1)) ends with =RIGHT(A1,3)="ZZZ" Note that none of these are case sensitive. Biff "Amber" wrote in message ... How can I express the following within a function? begins with contains ends with |
