    check cell on presence of text from range

    Hi there,
    my question posted before is still unresolved.

    I need a simple formula (no VBA) which checks (e.g. by means of TRUE/FALSE) whether it contains any text from a given range. Preferably it should neglect blank cells therein.

    Illustration is given in enclosed example. A formula in orange cell shoucl return TRUE as 'train' in yellow range forms part of 'trainstation' (green cell).

    Anybody an idea how to do this?

    Regards Niels

    this question wasn't solved, I only thought it fits better on the 'formulae forum'.
    As I didn't know how to delete, I opted for 'marked as solved'..
