    Find matching text

    I'm trying to figure out how to find text within a column that matches a cell content, and if matches then populate the contents of another cell.
    For example on the attached file:
    I want to do a search for contents of C5 on all cells of column E, if it matches the query then populate B5 with contents of cell D504 (HW-01-00114)
