Okay I have a problem with a vlookup using a wild card.
In my example i want to lookup anything like [cert] under the names column. But I also need to see both multiple instances of the same name as well as the other names contain anything like cert.
So right now I am using =vlookup("*"&A2"*",B:B,1,FALSE)
Also is there a way to return anything with brackets and only display the brackets and characters within. The brackets around the name will allways be at the beginning of the name but they may contain a different ammount of characters.
