    Formula for certain text

    Hello,

    I am searching for a formula that will print a certain string of text in a cell, example below:


    A2
    4P6.6

    B2
    4P6.6

    So I need a formula that will search a cell (A2) for the certain word I specify and then the print that word (B2).

    Re: Formula for certain text

    Try this in B2:

    =IF(COUNTIF(A2,"*4P6.6*"),"4P6.6","")

    Based on what you have shared, this formula will search for "4P6.6" in A2 and if it finds it, it will return "4P6.6" in B2.
    If "4P6.6" is not found in A2, B2 will return blank.
