Help! How do I do this?


Posted by Amber on February 15, 2002 12:07 PM

I am trying to figure out how to make excel (or a macro in excel) look at column d to see if it has "ws*" in it, then if it does-paste "cisco" into column b..... (if it does not have "ws" in the cell then do nothing)..... can someone tell me if, then how to do this?

In column B, same row, and supposing we'll start with Row 2:

=if(left(d2,2)="ws","cisco","")

AutoFilter column D using Begins with "ws" as
the criteria. Select column B and choose
the Edit | Go To... | Special... Visible cells only.
Type "cisco" and press Control+Enter.
