Formula to get/find require text in given cell

[harinsh]

Hi Team,

I hope anyone can help with my question. I have two sheets and in the second sheet from A1 to A10 have some names and this list, not static and dynamic as and when list may increase.

In sheet one from A1 to A1000 (this may increase day by day) has fields which contain sheet two names along with some other information which is not required, I only need to get the same name if that particular name within the field.

For example,
Sheet2
[TABLE="width: 131"]
<tbody>[TR]
[TD]apple
[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]mango
[/TD]
[/TR]

[TD]banana

[TD]watermealon

Hi

Try this, using control+shift+enter, for your fruits in Sheet2, with your text in A3 on Sheet1:

=INDEX(Sheet2!$A$2:$A$11,MATCH(TRUE,ISNUMBER(FIND(Sheet2!$A$2:$A$11,A3)),0))

Hi Mackers,

Thanks for your reply...Its working fine but array formula slow in the calculation as I have 35000 (may go up to 100000) rows ....anything without array formula ...

Total number of characters that a cell can contain (2^15) = 32768 (Its noting but cell limit)
