Hi,

I have the formula (below) and wondered if there is a way to amend it, so that it only searches strings where the text contains ‘Hall’ (case sensitive).

=SORT(FILTER('parkrun Reader Dump'!B3:B5003,('parkrun Reader Dump'!N3:N5003=1)*('parkrun Reader Dump'!O3:O5003=1)*('parkrun Reader Dump'!P3:P5003=1)*('parkrun Reader Dump'!D3:D5003="United Kingdom")*((ISNUMBER(SEARCH(" Hall",'parkrun Reader Dump'!B3:B5003)))+(ISNUMBER(SEARCH("Hall ",'parkrun Reader Dump'!B3:B5003)))+(ISNUMBER(SEARCH(" Hall ",'parkrun Reader Dump'!B3:B5003))))))

At the moment this picks up these entries:

Bramhall parkrun
Chadderton Hall parkrun
Conyngham Hall parkrun
Cromhall parkrun
Croxteth Hall parkrun
Cusworth Hall parkrun
Doddington Hall parkrun
Houghton Hall parkrun
Lytham Hall parkrun
Marshall Drive parkrun, Brotton
Normanby Hall parkrun
Oakwell Hall parkrun
Perry Hall parkrun
Storthes Hall parkrun
Wollaton Hall parkrun

The correct list should read:

Chadderton Hall parkrun
Conyngham Hall parkrun
Croxteth Hall parkrun
Cusworth Hall parkrun
Doddington Hall parkrun
Houghton Hall parkrun
Lytham Hall parkrun
Normanby Hall parkrun
Oakwell Hall parkrun
Perry Hall parkrun
Storthes Hall parkrun
Wollaton Hall parkrun

In essence I need to be able to exclude the ones where the word ends in 'hall'

Thanks,

Olly.

For case sensitive searches use Find rather than Search.

Your knowledge is superb! I now only have the one more complicated problem left unanswered - it seems to have stumped everyone!

I doubt that, it's just you have given virtually no information in the thread & are relying on members to download the workbook, which they can't as it's over 25meg. Also a lot of members are not going to be willing to download a file of that size.

I thought I had given quite a detailed description. Yes it is a massive file, but I just can't cut it down for things like these, because there are so many links between the sheets etc. I'll try and add more detail, but thought I had included as much as I could. Thanks.
