IF and Search formula for multiple values

[Anonymous]

Hi,

I want to search with IF and SEARCH to create a single value from multiple values.  

My problem is that it works when I only search one value, but if I search multiple values I get an error :  "Too few arguments were passed to the IF function. The minimum argument count for the function is 2."

#Searching 1 value at a time (working)

Newcolumn = if(search("name1", 'databasename'[Table], 1, 0 ) > 0, "Newname1", 'databasename'[Table])

#Searching 2 values at a time (not working)

Newcolumn = if(search("name1", 'databasename'[Table], 1, 0 ) > 0, "Newname1", 'databasename'[Table]), if(search("name2", 'databasename'[Table], 1, 0 ) > 0, "Newname2", 'databasename'[Table])

Anyone a solution?

Hi @Anonymous 

its completely wrong statement

try

Newcolumn = if(search("name1", 'databasename'[Table], 1, 0 ) > 0, "Newname1", if(search("name2", 'databasename'[Table], 1, 0 ) > 0, "Newname2", 'databasename'[Table]))

do not hesitate to give a kudo to useful posts and mark solutions as solution
