I am trying to use the FILTER function on a sample data set below and I need to extract just the address in column A based on dates in columns J through AF. The problem is that the date could appear in any column J through AF and it appears in a cell that looks like this: "Scheduled: 07/06/23" so if I use =IFERROR(MID(B2,FIND("/",B2)-2,8),0) to extract just the date, the FILTER function will not recognize the result of 07/06/23.

Here is a sample:

Excel Facts

What is =ROMAN(40) in Excel?
The Roman numeral for 40 is XL. Bill "MrExcel" Jelen's 40th book was called MrExcel XL.
(MID(B2,FIND("/",B2)-2,8),0)
The MID function returns a text, so if you are going to compare it against a date, then you must convert that text to a date and thus perform the comparison.

But I have a question, because you have texts with 2 dates, so if you search with Find it will extract the first one and I don't know if it is the correct one.

-----

How about:
If you are going to search for that date, in the cells you have texts, one option is to search for the date as text:


Excel Formula:
=IFERROR(FILTER(A2:A8,BYROW(J2:AF8,LAMBDA(br,SUM(--ISNUMBER(SEARCH("07/06/23",br)))))),"Not Exists")

;)

Thank you for your reply.

I am just looking to extract the first date if there are cells where more than one date appears.

The idea is to use FILTER so I can display any addresses that have only today's date in any of the rows. The plan here is for my team to open this spreadsheet in the morning and only see the addresses that are scheduled for the current day's date so they can know what is in progress for the day.

Entonces solamente debemos poner la fecha de hoy en la misma fórmula para buscarla. Pero con el formato mm/dd/yy

So we just have to put today's date in the same formula to find it. But with the format mm/dd/yy

Sorry about that, sometimes I forget to do the translation, I hope I don't get scolded by the forum moderators.

I appreciate your kindness to accept the text in Spanish and above all that the solution works for you.
