Formula with multiple criteria (including text)

[jperquin]

Hi,

I need to create a formula that is returning "term 1" or "term 2" if two criteria are met.

First criteria is that certain cells contains a date (in example N10).
And second criteria is that another cell (in example P10) should contain at least one of the words that are listed in column of cells (column U). In example below only "aaa" is listed.

The formula below, obviously doesn't work, so please help me. I have tried to find a solutions, however I am no mrexcel.

Thanks, Jaakko

=IF(AND($N10>0;ISNUMBER(SEARCH("aaa";P10)));"Monitored"; "Not Monitored")

Your formula works fine here. It doesn't check for a date in N10, just for a value larger than 0.
I see that you're using semicolon ";" to separate the different arguments in your formula. I use the same in Norway.
Normally, a comma "," is used worldwide. Could it be that you just have to replace the ";" with "," ?
