Hello! How can I work an OR statement into this formula? I need it to look at 6 different columns.

=IFERROR(INDEX(COLLECT({Provider being reviewed}, {MRN 1}, CONTAINS(@cell, MRN@row)), 1), "")

Hi @Lea722,

It is probably easier to do this with a helper JOIN formula column:

=JOIN([MRN 1]@row:[MRN 6]@row, " ")

You can then use a single formula to grab the provider name from finding the MRN value in this column:

=INDEX(COLLECT({Provider being reviewed}, {Join column}, CONTAINS(MRN@row, @cell)), 1)

Sample data:

Hope this helps, but if you've any problems/questions then just let us know!
