![]() I have various text strings in a column called Errors: Error 4.4.5, too many people Error 500: you aren't allowed to do that Error code is in the code I need a single formula to evaluate which of the 3 strings I am working with to pull information out of the string. Find() will tell me if "4.4.5" exists in string1, but returns #VALUE for string2 and string3. I don't want to get have to read errors. It would nice if Find() returned 0 if the string was not found. Here is what I would like: If(String1(), dostring1, If(String2(), dostring2, dostring3)) Is there an elegant way to do this without a UDF? |
