    put a cell value into a cell when the range of cell contain a specfic text

    Hi All,


    How do i put a cell value into a cell when the range of cell contain a specfic text using formula.
    For example, in the sample below, i want to put the cell value (13/2/2014) into B3 when a range of cell contain (A) Sam.


    sample.xlsx


    Is it possible as well that i can copy the cell value (13/2/2014) to all fields in column B till it reaches TOM (A1) for example?

    Please enlighten me.
    Thanks

    Hi, welcome to the forum

    Please upload a sample of your workbook, not a picture of your data. Pictures are pretty much impossible to edit, and no-one wants to re-type your data for you
    Also, not all members can upload picture files (Company firewalls and stuff)

    Your workbook should show a small desensitized example of the data you are working with and a manual mockup of the expected results.
    1. Use code tags for VBA. [code] Your Code [/code] (or use the # button)
    2. If your question is resolved, mark it SOLVED using the thread tools
    3. Click on the star if you think someone helped you

    Regards
    Ford
