Hi there,

I have the below formula, but i am wanting it to return "true" if the searched cell is also blank, but i cannot seem to get the formula right.

So if cell D5 contains, Near Miss, Incident or a blank cell= true

=SUMPRODUCT(--ISNUMBER(SEARCH({"Near Miss","Incident"},D5)))>0

Any ideas how i can adapt this cell to include that?

Copy formula down without changing references
If you have =SUM(F2:F49) in F50; type Alt+' in F51 to copy =SUM(F2:F49) to F51, leaving the formula in edit mode. Change SUM to COUNT.
Using your formula you could add this part:

Code:
=SUMPRODUCT(--ISNUMBER(SEARCH({"Near Miss","Incident"},D5))[COLOR=#ff0000]+(D5="")[/COLOR])>0
