    Search for specific text in a column, if found, then in another column equals a number

    I have an excel spreadsheet with columns A - Z with headers. I want to create a formula to look in a specific column/cell for a specific word, if found, then I want another column/cell to populate a #.

    This is the formula I am using: =IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH("USED VEHICLE-FIXED RATE",N2:N1000000)),"37","")

    I get the results I need but I can't figure out a formula to cut and paste the number into the correct column/cell.

    In P2 and copy down,

    IF(N2 = "USED VEHICLE-FIXED RATE", 37, "")
    Entia non sunt multiplicanda sine necessitate
