I can't seem to get this to work
=IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH("Rejected",A2)) =IF(isblank,"","Today"))

Any help would be appreciated.

Excel Facts

Which lookup functions find a value equal or greater than the lookup value?
MATCH uses -1 to find larger value (lookup table must be sorted ZA). XLOOKUP uses 1 to find values greater and does not need to be sorted.
Could you please explain what you are trying to do?

=IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH("Rejected",A2)),"ok","not") I added the OK not OK to make sure it was working I do not want it as part of the formula.
=IF(ISBLANK(B2),"",(TODAY()))
