Looking for help with nested IF and FIND

I'm looking to return text based on the content of a single, fixed cell, but I believe my syntax is bad.

Column A, Row 1 could potentially be "Q3M1W1", "Q3M2W1" or "Q3M2W3" which would be entered manually by the user.

I would like to have another cell display "M1W1" if A1 is "Q3M1W1" or "M2W1" if A1 is "Q3M2W1" or "No" if A1 is "Q3M2W3".

My formula, which is coming up unparsable is,

=IF((FIND("W1", A$1,0)), "M1W1", (FIND("M2W1", A$1,0)), "M2W1", "No")

What am I missing?

Thanks in advance.

If you are just splitting out the last 4 characters of text in an adjacent cell, why not use:

=RIGHT([Column A]1, 4)

=IF(FIND("W1", A$1,0), "M1W1", FIND("M2W1", A$1,0), "M2W1", "No")

You had some extra parenthesis tucked in there. Try the above.

Thanks for the recommendation! I did't see the forest for the trees.

Thanks Paul, this worked easily as well. Bookmarking this for ref.

Happy to help.

Lookup Value Issues
I am trying to populate a column from Sheet A into Sheet B and Sheet C. My Lookup column for Sheet A is formatted as such so there is a ' in front to account for ones that have a leading 0 and some do not. Each ID should be 6 digits long. I made a helper column looking at this Dealer ID column to try and get rid of that…

Index Distinct Support
I would like to parse out this data by creating a listing with a row for each person, for each project they appear on, for each month. I think this would only give me the groupings anyways, but this doesnt seem to even get me started - it popped up then people have disappeared.
