Anyone know how to capture reference text (I.e. some reference of a particular word in a given cell with multiple words) within a Median(if()) formula? Usually I use the funky “*”&xyz&”*”, where xyz is the word I’m looking for, but isn’t working in this formula I have down:

=IFERROR(MEDIAN(IF(Data!$AR:$AR>0,IF(Data!$Y:$Y>0,IF(Data!$M:$AM="*"&D$345&"*",Data!$BR:$BR)))),"")

Getting an error now because of the part where M:M = “*”&D$345&”*”

Did you mean M:M because formula here says M:AM.

It reads like an array, have you done ctrl + shift + enter when entering the formula? It’ll put additional brackets at the start and end when it works.

I believe they’re needed for all IF functions with other formula in Excel (e.g. needed for a MAX or MIN, but not SUM as you have SUMIFS)
