Is there a simple formula for checking if a cell contains a text string,
which returns a TRUE/FALSE? It is possible to combine "ISERROR" and "FIND",
but this becomes a pain when you have to do it all the time. Instead of
using the reverse logic of:
=if(iserror(find("text",A1))=FALSE,...
it would be so much easier to write:
=if(contains("text",A1),...
This is a very basic thing you can do with an autofilter, so it seems like
there would be a function that does this without returning error values. Any
suggestions? Thank you.
