IF(OR(Find Statement

Options

I am trying to build a formula that searches in a column for a certain word using FIND( and I would like to add OR to that. I am using this formula and it is working fine:

=LEFT([Address]@row, FIND("TZ", [Address]@row) - 1)

I would like to add FIND("GZ" so that it returns either after finding "TZ" or "GZ"


Thank you!

    May not be the best approach but can serve the purpose,

    =IF(FIND("TZ", [Address]@row) > 0, LEFT([Address]@row, FIND("TZ", [Address]@row) - 1) ,
        IF(FIND("GZ", [Address]@row) > 0, LEFT([Address]@row, FIND("GZ", [Address]@row) - 1), "No Match"
        )
    )
