Hi and welcome
without the sheet to work on try something along he lines of =SUMPRODUCT(--(isnumber(search(e6,A3:A5))),B3:B5) (1st attempt 5)

Please try
=SUMPRODUCT(SUMIFS($B$2:$B$8,$A$2:$A$8,IFERROR(--(F2&{"","*"}),"*"&F2&"*")))
or similar to Pepe's
=SUMPRODUCT(ISNUMBER(FIND(F2,A2:A9))*B2:B9)
Hi,
Thank you very much and sorry I couldn't upload the workbook (think is a bug).
Your solution worked perfectly.
Still I don't understand why the wildcard is not picking all values in SUMIF function.
It's either approximate match (Attempt 1) or exact match (Attempt 2).
Even when i tried to combine those 2 results with SUMIFS it gave null result (Aattempt 3).
Could you please tell where I was wrong?

Thank you and best regards,
Just be aware that FIND is case sensitive
Wildcard only applies for Text, 999 in B4 is number.
attempt 3 is for AND condition, A2:A8 is number 999 and text *999*, it will never be True for both.
Pepe, Thanks. Dice use number, so I use Find, 2 letters shorter.
