Example 2: Find exact values from a list
Because FIND is case sensitive, you can use it to find exact strings in another string. In this example, there are valid codes listed in column E. With the FIND function, we can identify the ID numbers in column B that contain one of the valid code strings. This formula must be array-entered, by pressing Ctrl + Shift + Enter =IF(OR(ISNUMBER(FIND($E$2:$E$4,B2))),"Yes","No")
