Hello,
I'm trying to use a contains criteria to pull a time stamp to a new cell. I have tried everything I know. Below is what I'm working with. I'm trying to take the time stamp in the first column and put it in the last column but only if the middle column contains the word "Alerting".

So, start with this:
[TABLE="width: 519"]
<colgroup><col><col><col><col></colgroup><tbody>[TR]
[TD]CallEventLog[/TD]
[TD]Column1[/TD]
[TD]assigned user[/TD]
[TD]Alert time[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD="align: right"]8:38:07 [/TD]
[TD]ACD interaction assigned to SueM[/TD]

[TD]ACD - Alerting: SueM[/TD]

[TD="align: right"]8:38:07 [/TD]
[TD]Sent to user SueM[/TD]

[TD][/TD]
[/TR]
</tbody>[/TABLE]


End with this:
[TABLE="width: 519"]
<colgroup><col><col><col><col></colgroup><tbody></tbody>[/TABLE]

[TABLE="width: 519"]
