Hello Community,

I would need help with the case below, please:

So, I have 2 sets of 2 columns, The first one (Column A and Column B) contain names that refer to a code. In the second set I have the same codes that should refer to the same name of the first set, but they could be misspelled. The codes are exactly the same in column B and D, but column C and D don’t contain all the codes and the names contained in Column A and B.
What I need to do is to compare Column A and C to find misspelled names of the rows with matching codes (column D and B).
Is there a way to do it in Airtable please?

Thanks!

You could use a formula like this:

IF(AND(B=D,A!=C),"Mismatch","Okay")
