Find text within a comma separated cell
Hi
I am trying to determine if a text value is within a cell and if so record result as a “Yes” within another cell.
For example I have text in my tag column D that is comma separated. As an example: (Act, Databases) are within a cell. I wanted a formula to search the column D for “Databases” and add a Yes within another cell.
can you help me?

You can use the following formula if the entry you want to search is in cell A1.
=ISNUMBER(FIND("Databases",A1))

Thanks for responding.
That did not work as expected. It gave me only a "False" message
What did was the recommendations from Quadruple_Pawn.
Best regards
