Check multiple cells for a match
I am trying to create a formula that checks multiple specific cells and then
returns a "YES" if it matches or a "NO" if it doesn't match any of the cells. example I have two worksheets - 1 and 2 I want to search these cells only on worksheet 1- cells B3, B24, B63, B78, B89 (But none of the cells in between such as B4, B35, etc) for a match with worksheet 2 cell A2. Is this possible? TIA. Rusty

Check multiple cells for a match
Or a macro approach. Modify to suit
Sub checkcertaincells() For Each i In Range("c4,c6,c10") If i = Range("f7") Then mycount = mycount + 1 Next i If mycount 0 Then MsgBox "There are " & mycount & " matches" End Sub -- Don Guillett Microsoft MVP Excel SalesAid Software "Rusty" wrote in message ...

Thanks Stefi and Don. I'll go with Stefi's as it was the first one I tried
and it is working great.
