Let me clarify -- formula looks in A1 to determine whether or not a number is
in the string that is in A1. For example A1 = asfkajsf4asdf --- TRUE A1 = asdlfksdfa ---- FALSE "Ted Metro" wrote: Is there an easy formula that will look at a cell and determine whether a number 0-9 is in that cell? |

With
A1 containing a value that may contain a number or be blank This formula returns TRUE if A1 contains a number: =MIN(SEARCH({0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9},A1&"0123456789") )<=LEN(A1) Is that something you can work with? *********** Regards, Ron XL2002, WinXP "Ted Metro" wrote: Let me clarify -- formula looks in A1 to determine whether or not a number is in the string that is in A1.

Try this:
=ISNUMBER(--MID(A1,MIN(FIND({0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9},A1&"01234567 89")),1)) Biff "Ted Metro" wrote in message ... Is there an easy formula that will look at a cell and determine whether a number 0-9 is in that cell? |
