(got an army of programmers?? got billions, and don't have 2, 3, 4 armies??)
would recommend refining the process.

1 area:
would recommend combination of commands in 2 or 3 letter abbreviations,
mnemonics.. e.g.: (isnumber(search could be: IS(LEFT(B9,2),$B$2)
but would allow inclusive / exclusive properties programmed in such as:

=IF(LEN(B9)<2,FALSE,ISNUMBER(SEARCH(LEFT(B9,2),$B$2)))
resources being what they are. (this does not work anyways, see below)

trying to find if LEFT(B9,2): F00 is in $B$2
$B$2: A0 B0 C0 D0 E0 F0

B9: "F" should return a false
If LEN<2 used can still get a false result.. .. ok have 3 versions of
the formula in the same cell using 3 different comparitor cells containing:
$B$2: A0 B0 C0
$B$3: H0 X0
$B$4: ..

zero (0) problem
would like formula's to work for us, instead of us for them, thanks
10 character functions requiring other functions just to do simple requests
taking to many resources.
