Question on "contains" function

tww

Hi all,

 

I have following text strings, and I would like to get all the ones contain "text" (case insensitive). I tried Filter with "Contains("text",[String]) but it did not show the correct results. Could someone help and let me know why ? Thank you

String
Text A
A
Text B
Text c
Txt C
text C
B

 

Output

 

String
Text A
Text B
Text c
text C

Did you include the 1 in your formula?

@tww Your Contains() function syntax is not  correct it should be the other way around Contains([String],'text')
