For some reason, my brain has passed away. I need a formula that returns one of two answers (that I supply) based on whether words in the MIDDLE of a cell are two certain words. I could do this with conditional formatting if there was an "is like" match, instead of just numeric possibilities like =<> etc.
So, in English, what the formula should SAY is this: "If cell B10 contains the words 'limited coverage,' display the text 'NOTE LIMITED COVERAGE!' If it doesn't, display nothing."
This would be so dang easy if those words were at the BEGINNING of the cell. Oh well. What has happened to my brain? It keeps thinking of things I could do in Access or Showcase, and I'm obviously overlooking something easy.
Help!
