    Extracting a Word from a cell that contains a sentence

    I am trying to extract a specific word that contains the letters I would like to identify from a cell that contains a long paragraph of text.

    Example:

    Cell A1: "I AM GOING HOME"

    I would like to extract the word from this cell that contains the letters "OIN" and the result should be the word "GOING".

    Thank u in advance for your help
