I am trying to cut up a string into chunks of 3 character long strings to see how many times there are 3 sequential letters in the string.

When I reference a range, e.g. D62#, the BYROW formula works as expected. But, when I substitute D62# for the formula that is in it, I get #CALC errors, empty array.

I don't understand why this is happening or how to fix it.

F62:F68F62=BYROW(MID(B60,C62#,3),LAMBDA(br,LET(c,CODE(TXT2ARR(UPPER(br))),a,DROP(c,1),b,DROP(c,-1),x,(a>64)*(a<91)*a,y,(b>64)*(b<91)*b,--(SUM(--(x-y=1))=2))))
Dynamic array formulas.


The code for the TXT2ARR function is

Excel Formula:
=LAMBDA(text,MID(text,SEQUENCE(LEN(text)),1))
 

Excel Facts

Copy a format multiple times
Select a formatted range. Double-click the Format Painter (left side of Home tab). You can paste formatting multiple times. Esc to stop
I agree it seems like it should work. Evaluating the F column formula it seems to be failing at the TXT2ARR function.

Here's an approach in column G that doesn't rely on TXT2ARR

Might be a minute before I get a chance to try it out. But thank you for the response. Looks great.
