    Wild Card?

    I'm writing an IF statement and I wonder how to write it as a wildcard? The field I'm checking a value on shows 0002450_001009_5504. The part of the field that I"m worried about is the last 4 digits (5504). If a column contains this and others then I want the value to be blank.

    Is it possible by checking the value against another workbook's values?

    Re: Wild Card?

    Something like

    =IF(ISNUMBER(FIND("abc", A1)), "abc is somewhere in the cell", "its not")
    _
    ...How to Cross-post politely...
    ..Wrap code by selecting the code and clicking the # or read this. Thank you.
