Hello again,
I've gotten the formula for finding occurrences of a word in one column based on whether it's in another column; now what I need is to find out whether a word in column A (for instance) appears in a string of text in column B. As in, a SKU in A, and a description in B, with the descriptions having several SKUs in each one. I need to be able to delete from a sheet any description that doesn't have the SKUs I'm looking for, and it would be really nice to color the corresponding cells the same, but even having the row number in the third row would be nice. Say I've got SKUs on widely separated rows, all pointing to one cell in B, and then in C, the row that has the SKU in A would have the row number of the cell in B that the string is in. Make sense? Thanks! -- Teresa Robinson Staff Programmer Analyst Anteon Corporation trobinson at anteon dot com |
