I am trying to write a conditional formating IF statement that requires the use of a wildcard (?)
If the value of C1 is "abs 2" then true.
If the value of C1 is "als 2" then true.
If the value of C1 is "aby 2" then false.
=IF(C1="a"&?&"s 2",1,0) #returns error upon hitting Enter#
=IF(C1="a"&"?"&"s 2",1,0) #condition met if value is "a?s 2"
=IF(C1="a"&'?'&"s 2",1,0) #returns error upon hitting Enter#
=IF(C1="a"&\?&"s 2",1,0) #Excel allows formula, but does not change cell#
Any further ideas?
Thanks in advance,
Jim
