Text in cell A1 " the quick brown fox"
Text in cel A2 " June is here" Text in cell A3 " Today is Monday" and so on until row A55000. I have a spreadsheet with thousands of lines but some lines of text repeats as above. How do I write one IF statement that searches for one of three words such as "brown", "here" and "Monday" and then returns the keyword that I am looking for. This way, I can quickly filter on all lines that have the word Monday or the word June etc..I know I can use =IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH(.......but help me to understand how to write 3 criteria or more in one statement...right now I can only write one criteria ie =IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH("JUNE",A2)),"JUNE" |
