'if column not include some word

if column not include some word

I use this filter but not working:

=if(NOT(REGEXMATCH(A1:A6,"boy")),"")

But it works if I use just one row like that:

=if(NOT(REGEXMATCH(A1,"boy")),"")

return empty cell

I want to search in hole column A in has text boy and return empty cell



Solution 1:[1]

use:

=ARRAYFORMULA(IF(NOT(REGEXMATCH(A1:A6; "boy")); )

or:

=ARRAYFORMULA(IF(NOT(REGEXMATCH(A1:A6; "boy"));;"xxx")

if you want to output only true/false then drop the IF:

=INDEX(NOT(REGEXMATCH(A1:A6; "boy")))

or:

=FILTER(A1:A6; NOT(REGEXMATCH(A1:A6; "boy")))
