Hi,
I have a spreadsheet over multiple rows and columns (A1:AZ102) with cells containing text.
I want excel to find all instances of a specific word in this range and return them to me in a list. I need to use a wildcard function as the word will only be part of the cell contents.
I can currently achieve this in a single column with this formula:
=IF(E3>$B$3,"",INDEX(Master!$E$1:$E$102,SMALL(IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH($C$3,Master!$E$1:$E$102)),ROW(Master!$E$1:$E$102)-ROW(Master!$E$1)+1),E3)))
B3 = number of instances the word appears in the range
E3 = 1 (E4=2 E5=3 etc.)
Master = my data
C3 = The word I want to look up (partial text)
This formula returns all the instances of C3 in the Master Column E
Is there a way for me to return all instances of C3 in Master!A1:AX102 ?
Thanks for your help!
