    search text of cell in a range and return the contents in the corresponding column

    Hi all
    I am trying to look for a specific word within the text in a range of cells and result should be the value in the corresponding column.
    example.
    Look for CIBC and result should be "4km"
    Bank TD 2km
    RBC Bank 3km
    CIBC Bank 4km
    Scotial Bank 5km
    National Bank 6km
    Bank of America 7km
    HBL Bank 8km
    HSBC Bank 9km

    Many Thanks
