Hi All,
I am trying to run a check, what I have is a workbook with a list of all files in a directory the title of the files should contain an item number I also have a list of all Item numbers on a separate sheet within the workbook, I am really struggling to get what seems to be a simple formula working (i have never used these types of formulas before(poor excuse but its all I got))
So file name is on sheet 'Line balance Dir' column A and item code is on sheet 'Item Code' column A
been trying things along these lines =IFISNUMBER(SEARCH(A3,'Item Code'!A:A)) but not happening returns #name?
or =IF(FIND('Item Code'!A:A,A2),"TRUE","FALSE") returns #value!
any help is as always greatly appreciated
thank you
