Good morning all,

having a mental block today so would be grateful for some direction please.


basically I'm at a loss on how to do this simple thing.

Column K, K20:K173 is where I input data and I'm looking to add a formula in cell K11 that returns a the word "yes" based on the said columns data if "RC" is input anywhere in column K.

Column K is filled in green which needs to stay however I need the cell K11 to be a different colour (lets say red).

what's your thoughts?

Any help would be appreciated.

Whats the difference between CONCAT and CONCATENATE?
The newer CONCAT function can reference a range of cells. =CONCATENATE(A1,A2,A3,A4,A5) becomes =CONCAT(A1:A5)
Thank you storm8,

worked perfectly, much appreciated.
