Hello! I am trying to figure out how to correctly write a formula that will look for the word TRUE in 2 different ranges. If there is a TRUE anywhere in either range, then it would return the text "TRUE"
Here was my best shot so far and it's a no go...
'=IF(OR(COUNTA(AF47:AF90)="True",IF(COUNTA(AF137:AF150)="True"),"TRUE"))
Can you help?
Thanks so much in advance.

How to fill five years of quarters?
Type 1Q-2023 in a cell. Grab the fill handle and drag down or right. After 4Q-2023, Excel will jump to 1Q-2024. Dash can be any character.
How about
Excel Formula:
=ISNUMBER(XMATCH("True",VSTACK(AF47:AF90,AF137:AF150)))

Thank you so much! I've never used XMATCH or VSTACK so I couldn't have solved this problem without you! Thanks for your expertise!
