New Column with IF Statement with multiple conditions

Hello,

 

I would like to create a new column (not in a query) so that return a value of "ERROR" if values in either "WorksetName" and "TypeWorksetName" do not start with "Links CAD".

 

This is not working

 

FileType = IF(
OR(
ISERROR(SEARCH("Links CAD", 'LinkAndImportInstances2-4'[WorksetName])),
ISERROR(SEARCH("Links CAD", 'LinkAndImportInstances2-4'[TypeWorksetName]))
)
"Wrong Workset",
"OK"
)

 

Thank you

Hard to tell without sample data. I gave it a shot anyways.

 

FileType using SEARCH = 
IF (
    OR (
        SEARCH ( "Links CAD", 'LinkAndImportInstances2-4'[WorksetName], 1, 0 ) = 1,
        SEARCH ( "Links CAD", 'LinkAndImportInstances2-4'[TypeWorksetName], 1, 0 ) = 1
    ),
    "OK",
    "Wrong Workset"
)

SEARCH ( ) returns the starting position of the text -> '0Links CAD" returns 2
