Hello folks,
how can we use an "If" statement to test if there exists an "X" character in any of the cells within a range?
Thanks
Hello folks,

is the "X" going to be the only character in the cell or is it just one letter among many like in A2 is X vs in A2 is 60X11A?

Use the COUNTIF function:
=COUNTIF(range,"X")>0

Maybe this:
=IF(COUNTIF(A1:D9,"x")>0,"Present","Absent")
Adjust the ranges to suit...

you can use
=SUMPRODUCT(ISNUMBER(SEARCH("X",A4:A20))+0)>0
which will return TRUE or FALSE
then if true - use the IF
=IF(SUMPRODUCT(ISNUMBER(SEARCH("X",A4:A20))+0)>0, "Range Contains an X" , "No X")
