Row contains specified value

Hi,
I have a column like below.

I want to return rows which contain let's say VVS150.

How to do this?

TEST= 
var VVS = SEARCH("VVS"; Warehouse[Item Name]; 1; BLANK())

RETURN
IF(ISBLANK(VVR); "Undefined"; MID(Warehouse[Item Name]; VVS+4; 3))

Hi @pawelj795 

for example you can create a calculated column

_isContain = IF(SEARCH("VVS150", [Column]) > 0, TRUE(), FALSE())

then filter in visual by this new column

or

to create a new calculated table

_newTable = FILTER(Table, SEARCH("VVS150", Table[Column]) > 0)

It's a only a bit of much complicated function, so it must end in one formula.

 

I ask differently.

From above screenshot I want to RETURN three digits.

Where is my mistake?

try to replace BlANK() to 0 in your var statement - MID should have a digit second argument, BlANK() will provide an expected error

or try to obtain MID in if like

IF(ISBLANK(VVR); "Undefined"; MID(Warehouse[Item Name];VVS;3))

Your first solution return same error.

But I can't understand your second idea.

What VVR and "Undefined" in your statement mean?

it will check - if VVR returns BLANK() value then column wll be equal "Undefined" or anything you want instead. If VVR returns digit it will execute MID() function
