If no comma found

[David P.]

What formula would accomplish:

If no comma found in A1 then...

 

[Pete_UK]

Try this:

=IF(ISERROR(SEARCH(",",A1)), etc

or

=IF(NOT(ISNUMBER(SEARCH(",",A1))), etc

You can also use FIND instead of SEARCH.

Hope this helps.

=IF(LEN(SUBSTITUTE(A1,",",""))=LEN(A1),"no comma","its got comma(s)")

 

[Dave Peterson]

One more:
=if(countif(a1,"*,*")=0,"No comma","At least one")

Hi,

To add flexibility enter the search item in another cell, say C1 and then

=IF(SEARCH(C1,A1),"found","not found")

 

[T. Valko]

=IF(SEARCH(C1,A1),"found","not found")

If the item isn't found that formula will return an error. It will *never*
return "not found".
