Team.. Need your help again. I believe it is possible for Excel to find key words as described by user and paste the same in the dedicated cell. And I also believe this can be done without using a Macro. Please help out on the below.. I prefer not to use Macro's if possible please.

Keyword and their expected output:

Key Words (NOT case sensitive): (This is just an example Key Word list.. actual one is approx. 20 items/values)Result
FlightFlight
FlightsFlight
TicketAir Ticket
Air TicketAir Ticket
Air TicketsAir Ticket
PNRPNR
PNR'sPNR
PNRsPNR

Below is an example (In some cases there are 2 key words used, Excel can choose the first key word in such cases)

DescriptionCriteriaExpected Result
ABC bought a flight ticket paying XXX amountFlight
XYZ bought 3 Air Tickets paying xxx amountAir Ticket
CDE bought 1 Air Ticket vide PNR - XXXXXXXAir Ticket

Hope to hear from you soon. Thanks.. M
 
Doubtful without vba (maybe even doubtful with vba) but given the new conditions could we have some fresh realistic sample data (including layout of key word location) and expected results?
