How to use FIND Formula in Excel



Excel FIND function can be used when you want to locate a text string within another text string and find its position.

It returns a number that represents the starting position of the string you are finding in another string.

ADDITIONAL NOTES:
— If the start number is not specified, then it starts looking from the beginning of the string.
— Excel FIND function is case-sensitive. If you want to do a case-insensitive search, use Excel SEARCH function.
— Excel FIND function can not handle wildcard characters. If you want to use wildcard characters, use the Excel SEARCH function.
— It returns a #VALUE! error if the searched string is not found in the text.
