Hello,
Could someone please help me with the IF statement in column Q? The formula should be If Column J is "Y" then remove substring "HM" from column P. The formula I'm trying is also deleting everything after the substring and if the substring doesn't exist then it's giving me #VALUE!

Excel Facts

Bring active cell back into view
Start at A1 and select to A9999 while writing a formula, you can't see A1 anymore. Press Ctrl+Backspace to bring active cell into view.
How about
Excel Formula:
=IF(J2="Y",SUBSTITUTE(P2,"HM ",""),P2)

It works for rows 3 and 4 but not for row 1:
