Hello everyone, I hope you are having a pleasant day!

I am not an expert Excel user, and I have been struggling to find a formula that can help me identify whether a value (in my case, text) is contained within an array.

Below the use-case:

Column D contains a sample set of "Product Names".

Column A contains a sample set of "Advertisement Titles" from eBay.

I want to know whether the product names from column D are contained in the titles from column A. The result to appear in column B, as shown below.

I tried using MATCH, SEARCH, XVLOOKUP and combinations thereof but none delivered the result I am looking for.

I am using Excel for Microsoft 365 Version 2202.

Thank you very much for your help.
 
You're welcome & thanks for the feedback.
