    lookup to return text in multiple rows if one word found in a row against a scenario

    Hi i am trying to do a lookup by text and return a yes or no answer

    I have made an example

    so below im trying to find out locations where clive has been crazy

    so if clive has been crazy at any point in the house i want it to return the word yes or crazy in the crazy? column against every instance in the scenario column where it states house

    so the return in the crazy? column for the first 3 rows and the garage row should say crazy the rest should say sane!



    Clive type Scenario Crazy?
    Crazy clive house
    Standard clive house
    Clive bored house
    Clive bored Car
    Crazy clive Garage
    Standard clive Car


    Thank you

    So, one option:

    however, if you have a very large dataset you may find the above a little slow -- if performance is a concern you should sort your data by B, at which point you could use:
    Formula: copy to clipboard

    which, used in large volume, would perform better.
