    Conditional Formatting of text in another cell to match one cell

    Hi guys

    I have a large data set to filter through.

    I have narrowed down my data set and require conditional formatting to save my time and ensure i detect any swear words left by customer reviews

    Can anyone advise/help with a conditional formatting like so:

    if a word in C2 is in I2, the specific text/character should be highlighted in red in I2? This would save me so much time and effort!

    Sheet attachged.
    Thanjk you!
