    If formula finding text in a formula driven cell

    I have this formula giving me what i want in the cell =INDEX(Table4[Part Number],MATCH("ReOrder",Table4[Re-Order],0))

    But i want to put it in a =if(Table4[Re-Order] = "ReOrder", INDEX(Table4[Part Number],MATCH("ReOrder",Table4[Re-Order],0)),"")

    It just comes up blank it doesnt seem to be able to check that the Re-Order in table4 contains the text ReOrder

    Re-Order in table 4 is a formula based cell to show blank or re-order.

    Thanks for any help provided

    You are trying to apply a condition based on a row from another table. How does Excel know which row to check in Table4[Re-Order]?

    At the moment Table 4 only has one record in it.

    I think you need more data than one row and mock-up in your results table what you should see based on the sample.

    The formula you have won't work as it is.
