How do I search/find a substring that does not contain specific alphabet in a specific position. Is this possible
example: Find cells that
a)do not contain "t" in 4th position and
b)contains "r" in 5th position

...confirmed by pressing CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER to activate the array, not just ENTER. You will know the array is active when you see braces { } appear around your formula. If you do not CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER you will get an error or a clearly incorrect answer. Press F2 on that cell and try again.
