Col A Col B
ABC Stores Stores (I am trying to give formual in Col
B to check the Character
"Stores" in Col A. A1 contains "ABC
Stores", in this cell i
need to check
whether "stores" is
available or not if available
classify as "Stores" in
Col B.)
DEF Mal
GHI complex
JKL Stores Stores

I request anybody to help me with a solution.
