Hi Mynda,

Thanks for posting this! I tried to search for multiple texts in one cell. example:
cell A1 = red, A2 = blue, A3 = green ; I created named range 'list' which is $A$1:$A$3
cell B1 = car is blue

formulae: SEARCH(list,B1) results in #value
FIND(list,B1) results in #value

Attached is excel.

Thanks,

Atul

Sorry, but no file is attached.

Seems to me that you want to do something like this. https://www.myonlinetraininghu.....t-of-words
