Hi,
The following formula works in excel but not in Google Sheets. How do I modify to work in Google Sheets:
=LOOKUP(REPT("z",255),CHOOSE({1,2,3},"",
LOOKUP(999999999999999,SEARCH(abbreviations!$A$1:$JZ$1,'Invoice Insert'!F110),abbreviations!$A$3:$JZ$3)))
I basically want to search a range and if any of the range is contained within my cell, then I want that result. For example in 'Invoice Insert'!F25 I have: 21c Cartwright Road
Since 21c Cartwright Road would be found in within row 1 (it would be found in 21c*Cart* which is e5, then I want to return the corresponding cell in row 3 which would be: 21c Cartwright Rd
This formula works in excel. But you can't seem to use Search to search an entire range for a cell. Please note that the range contains "*" so it isn't necessarily an exact match
This is a very hard formula to work out in Google Sheets. Any help would be much appreciated

62a Arcus | 62b Arcus | 8b Campbell Pl | 8a Campbell Pl | 21c Cartwright Rd | 21 Cartwright Rd | 21b Cartwright Rd | 13a Dakota Pl |
