Good evening,
I thought this would be easy for me but I got stumped. I am looking to find the position of a certain value in a string (cell A1). I want to find the value 1 or should I say the Actual value 1. The answer should be position 7. I come up with 1 every time. Can someone please help me! Thanks in advance!!!
