Hi guys,

anyone who knows a formula to give a true/false output if cells countain double question marks or two seperate questions marks?

This should be the result:

H?eLlo?True
Good?nightFalse
Goodmorning??True
?GoodeveningFalse
B??yeTrue

If there are more than 2 i get true. The opening post said 2 not more than 2 didnt it?

It doesn't actually say not more than 2, just that it contains 2, that doesn't necessarily mean that it couldn't contain 3.
