Hello all ,

Im wanting to get a TRUE FALSE function that will only look at the cols I want , not a range as such .

As per sample sheet my results col E , in this case I only want to look at cols A B D , not col C .

I want to add a few more cols than the 3 in sample but don’t know how to do this

Thanks .

Excel Facts

Bring active cell back into view
Start at A1 and select to A9999 while writing a formula, you can't see A1 anymore. Press Ctrl+Backspace to bring active cell into view.
E2, control+shift+enter, not just enter:

=ISNUMBER(MATCH(TRUE,CHOOSE(ROW(INDIRECT("1:"&COUNTA(A2,B2,D2))),A2,B2,D2),0))

Does not a simple adaptation of Aladin's OR formula as provided here, & noting the subsequent confirmation that Ctrl+Shift+enter is not required, suffice for your needs?

=OR(A2:B2,D2)
