    Exclamation TEXTJOIN only specific words

    Hi

    I am making a excel sheet where cell I27 are counting spesific products from C63:C65 and this is working perfectly. But I have problems getting cell L27 a text string of spesific word from cell C63:C65.

    Ex: L27 are only looking for "apple" and "banana". C63=Apple C64= House. Then L27 should contain "Apple" only. I have this formula but it only adds everything: =IF(ISTEXT(C63),CONCATENATE(C63," ",C64," ",C65),"")

    Let's say yiur "allowed list" (banana and apple) is written in F63:F6
    Then in L27 try:
    Formula: copy to clipboard

    PS. I don't have handy new excel at the moment, so the above answer does not use TEXTJOIN function, which probably would produce more compact formula

    Re: TEXTJOIN only specific words

    Thank you Kaper. My apologies if I ask stupid but where do I write down my spesific products, eks; "apple" and "banana" in the formula? C64:C65 is a list where i put all my products but the cell L27 is only allowed to show a text string with a specific range of products, in this case "apple" and "banana".

    My suggestion was to write your "allowed list" into cells: F63 and F64, but you could write the list directly into formula like:

    Formula: copy to clipboard
