I am after a formula to determine if a value in one cell (column F) exists in a string in column B.
If exists place W in column E or a L if not exists.
I can then apply the formula to column C and D accordingly.
Thanks for your help.

In E2:
=MAP(F2:F16,B2:B16,LAMBDA(x,y,IF(ISERROR(MATCH(x,--TEXTSPLIT(y,,","),0)),"L","W")))

If you want to include C and D, try this:

Thank you Ail,
I am in awe of your skills. The formula works perfectly in the spreadsheet but generates a spill in the table format. I am just trying to find out why or remove the table formatting which means changing other formulae.
Thank you so much. I will let you know what I am able to do.

This formula works perfectly in a sheet but generates a spill in table format. Is that expected, DJ?
Spill array does not work with tables.
Use this formula instead.
