    If this is one cell
    try
    =IF(COUNTIF(A1,"*check*"),"Checking","Doing")

    Since you mentioned row...try the below as well It checks for these words in Cols A to J for the first row. Copy down as required. =IF(COUNTIF(A1:J1,"*check*"),"Checking","Doing")

    If this post helps click Yes

    I have a row containing various text including the words 'Check' & 'Checking'; in a separate row I would like to identify all the cells which include 'Check' or 'Checking' and return the text "Checking" if it contains
    either 'Check' or 'Checking' or "Doing" if it doesn't.
    Hope this makes sense?
    Many thanks

    what should I do, when I have to find 2 different texts ?
