    Put this on AF6 and copied down:

    =IFERROR(IF(IFERROR(LOOKUP(1000,SEARCH(SUBSTITUTE($AB$6:$AB$11," ","*"),L6),$AB$6:$AB$11),LOOKUP(1000,SEARCH(LEFT($AB$6:$AB$11,FIND(" ",$AB$6:$AB$11&" ")-1),L6),$AB$6:$AB$11))=IFERROR(LOOKUP(1000,SEARCH(SUBSTITUTE($AB$6:$AB$11," ","*"),L6),$AB$6:$AB$11),LOOKUP(1000,SEARCH(LEFT($AB$6:$AB$11,FIND(" ",$AB$6:$AB$11&" ")-1),L6),$AB$6:$AB$11)),"L matches AB","No Match"),"No Macth")

    Azumi
    One question - What does the 1000 do in the formula. I know how to change the range, such as row 6 - 11
    but not sure if I need to change the 1000 if I have a sheet with 4000 rows of data.
    Thanks Carroll
