Hello,

I have the formula: =IF(INDEX('4WK MVT'!B:B,MATCH('Worksheet'!C12,'4WK MVT'!D:D,0))="*"&"DC"&"*",True,False)

The end goal here is if the returned result has "DC" in it, I want it to the True, if not, False.

Pretty sure I am using the wildcard incorrectly or something. Thank you!
 

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.
Found the solution. No answer needed.

=IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH("DC",INDEX('4WK MVT'!B:B,MATCH('Dairy Allocation Worksheet'!C12,'4WK MVT'!D:D,0)))),"DC",INDEX('4WK MVT'!B:B,MATCH('Dairy Allocation Worksheet'!C12,'4WK MVT'!D:D,0)))

using ISNUMBER and SEARCH to find the value, then return what I want.
