    Search multiple rows and colums and return with

    All,

    I have been searching for days. I am in need of some assistance. I am trying to search a speadsheet on one tab, then if it finds what I want it to, I would like it to equal something else on the next tab. For example:

    Search Sheet one from C4 to J19 for the number 6

    If it finds the number 6, than I want it to equal "X"

    I found the below fomula but I can not get it to work when i want it to search multiple from C4-J19

    =IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH("6",'Draft Board'!C4)),"X","")

    Any help out there???

    Thank you

    ...earch Sheet one from C4 to J19 for the number 6
    Perhaps..

    =IF(COUNTIF(Sheet1!C4:J19,6),"x","")
