I am trying to find a function to lookup a code assigned with a string of text, e.g., connect that code 0851 corresponds with "Black Hat." The problem is that the table that I would normally use the vlookup for has multiple strings of text in the cell, so it won't find "Black Hat" since the cells go something like "Black Hat/Purple Shoes." Is there a function that will help me answer "If 'Black Hat' is contained in a cell, show me the code that corresponds to that cell which contains 'Black Hat'"?
Hopefully that is clear. I was having trouble trying to figure out how I would ask. Basically, I am looking to see how I can identify a part of the text in a cell (almost like doing ctrl + F and typing in part of the word but still finding what you are looking for).
