Searching for race type

Postby 813615 » Wed Nov 09, 2022 8:45 am

Morning guys, hope we're good.
After a bit of advice regarding a formula in a cell that looks at the type of race noted in column A1. I currently have this formula that looks for handicap races "Hcap" only but want to extend this for Novice and Maiden races too but tried different ways by adding the extra text but no success if anyone can help:
=IF(ISBLANK(A5),"",IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH("Hcap",$A$1)),1,0))

Many thanks

Use OR function

Code: Select all
=IF(ISBLANK(A5),"",IF(OR(ISNUMBER(SEARCH("Hcap",$A$1)),ISNUMBER(SEARCH("Nov",$A$1)),ISNUMBER(SEARCH("Mdn",$A$1))),1,0))

Sports betting software from Gruss Software


The strength of Gruss Software is that it’s been designed by one of you, a frustrated sports punter, and then developed by listening to dozens of like-minded enthusiasts.

Gruss is owned and run by brothers Gary and Mark Russell. Gary discovered Betfair in 2004 and soon realised that using bespoke software to place bets was much more efficient than merely placing them through the website.

Gary built his own software and then enhanced its features after trialling it through other Betfair users and reacting to their improvement ideas, something that still happens today.

He started making a small monthly charge so he could work on it full-time and then recruited Mark to help develop the products and Gruss Software was born.

We think it’s the best of its kind and so do a lot of our customers. But you can never stand still in this game and we’ll continue to improve the software if any more great ideas emerge.
