    Re: mark Y if word has 4 consecutive vowels

    I came up with a UDF (UserDefinedFunction) to allow you to use a formula on the sheet that uses the UDF to complete the result of the formula. Just copy the UDF to a module in the workbook and then You will be able to use it like a formula.

    The UDF to copy to a module:

    Then when you want to use it like a formula:
    just enter a formula in the worksheet something like:

    =IF(FCV(A1,3), "Y", "")

    A1 is the address to check
    3 is the # of consecutive vowel values to check for
    Y is the result you want to display if # of consecutive vowel values were found
    "" is the result if # of consecutive vowel values were not found

    Example formulas to put in cell on sheet:

    =IF(FCV(A1,3), "Y", "")

    Or

    =IF(FCV(A2,4), "Y", "")

    Formula solution. TEXTJOIN function is used. But 2010 version is not having TEXTJOIN function. It may help somebody.
    For 4 consecutive vowels, In B1 copied down.
    Formula: copy to clipboard

    Re: mark Y if word has 4 consecutive vowels

    Try this,

    B1
    =IF(SUM(--(FREQUENCY(IF(ISNUMBER(FIND(MID(A1,ROW(INDIRECT("1:"&LEN(A1))),1),"AEIOU")),ROW(INDIRECT("1:"&LEN(A1)))),IF(NOT(ISNUMBER(FIND(MID(A1,ROW(INDIRECT("1:"&LEN(A1))),1),"AEIOU"))),ROW(INDIRECT("1:"&LEN(A1)))))=4)),"Y","")

    committed with Ctrl+Shift+Enter, copied down

    C1
    =IF(SUM(--(FREQUENCY(IF(ISNUMBER(FIND(MID(A1,ROW(INDIRECT("1:"&LEN(A1))),1),"AEIOU")),ROW(INDIRECT("1:"&LEN(A1)))),IF(NOT(ISNUMBER(FIND(MID(A1,ROW(INDIRECT("1:"&LEN(A1))),1),"AEIOU"))),ROW(INDIRECT("1:"&LEN(A1)))))=3)),"Y","")

    committed with Ctrl+Shift+Enter, copied down
