Hi there,
I'm trying to find out if there is a worksheet function that can check if a value exists in a cell, where that cell may contain multiple values.
My example, is with resources. I am exporting resources from calendar to excel - so the 'required attendees' field may have up to 15 or so unique values (names) in each cell, seperated by a ';'.
I have developed code that will basically split each name into it's own cell - but this is a messy way to do things.
I'm thinking there must be a way in excel to return a TRUE/FALSE (or similar) on whether a value exists in a cell containing multiple values.
eg. A1 may contain -
Smith, John; Stewart, James; Jones, Elizabeth
I'm chasing a function that does -
IF A1 CONTAINS 'Stewart, James' THEN A2=TRUE, ELSE A2 = FALSE.
Or something along those lines.
If someone can point me to a function or example I would be grateful!
Cheers
Rob
