Try this...
Make a list of the words you want to look for. Assume this list is in the range F1:F10. Enter this formula in L1 and copy down as needed: =IF(COUNT(LOOKUP(2,1/SEARCH(F$1:F$10,D1))),J1,"") -- Biff Microsoft Excel MVP "Len" wrote in message ...

Nest IF function
If you are just looking to match, you can use the LOOKUP function on
Column D. For example =Lookup(D1,{"travel","air/fares","tolls"},{200,400,50}) - Madhu On Jun 15, 7:13*pm, Len wrote: Hi, How to set a nested IF function to check column D for one or more specific texts ,if matches it returns the corresponding value from column J and go on the next row until it reaches the furnishing line for example, * * * * * Column D * * * Column J * * * * * * *Column L 1) …travel… * * * * * * * * * * * 200.00 IF(ISNUMBER(FIND("travel",$D1)),$J1,"") = 200.00 2) …air/fares * * * * * * * * * * * 400.00 IF(ISNUMBER(FIND("travel",$D1)),$J1,"") = blank 3) …tolls… * * * * * * * * * * * * * 50.00 IF(ISNUMBER(FIND("tolls",$D2)),$J2,"") = 50.00 4) …B’trips…travel… * * * * *124.00 * * * * * * * Nested IF formula ??? *= 124.00 5) …B’trips…travel… tolls.. *75.00 * * * * * Nested IF formula ??? *= 75.00 For item 4), Nested IF formula for one or more specific texts ( ie B'trip or travel ) For item 5), Nested IF formula for one or more specific texts ( ie B'trip or travel or tolls ) Is it possible to set the above function such as like or contain to check for one or more specific text from that row ?

Please help, many thanks Regards Len- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - Hi Madhu, Thanks for your suggestion, it seems that your lookup function doen't give the correct result , say place a formula to search " travel, air/ fares, tolls or more " from cell D1 and if match, it will return the corresponding value from cell J1. Note that the search list may expand due to case sensitive or abbreviation of text Regards Len |
