I had a problem yesterday and you all helped me solve it! Thanks much.
Now another one. I don't know if this is possible or a really dumb question so bear with me.
I have this HUGE spreadsheet. It has a column with information, such as:
Wladyslaw Stanislaw Reymont, Poland, novelist
Jan R Slotemaker de Bruane, Dutch clergyman/politician
Joseph Cuvelier, Belgian historian/archivist
Amedos Peter Giann San Jose, CA, founded Bank of America
John McClutcheon, cartoonist
August Reusner, composer
Chi Morgenstern, writer
The next column will state which Category each cell falls into:
For example:
History & Politics
Literature & Theater
Music, etc.
Is it possible to write something that states "If cell has 'composer' in it, then type "Music" in following cell? And so forth? I know this will not work 100% because of the wording of some cells however I have probably 50,000 entries and would LOVE not to have to type each one by hand.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance,
Infinity
