I have a two sheet workbook. If 'sheet 1 B7' contains a certain word I want
"Sheet2 B2' to return the value in 'Sheet 1 B8". Can I do this? How? Thanx |

Type this formula in B2 of Sheet2:
=if(countif(Sheet1!b7,"*"&"certain"&"*")=0,"",shee t1!b8) =countif() will treat the * as a wild card. So "certain" could be anywhere in that B7 Cell.

=if('sheet1 B7'="Desired Word",'Sheet 1 B8","")
This has to be done in "Sheet2 B2" Please note that there is normally a "!" between the sheet and the cell location. If you start by typing in the "If" statement and use the mouse to point to the cells desired XL will put in the correct notation. -- Wag more, bark less "Becky" wrote: I have a two sheet workbook.
