I have a set of data which is hyphen separated as follows:

1-3-4-6-7-8-9A4
3-4-6A1&A4
6-8-9A1&A4
1-3-4-6-7-8-9-0Not Found

My objective is to find the cell location(s) in which I can find the cell string as a subset. If the string is not found as a subset on any other cell except itself I want to flag it as "Not found"

Is excel able to help me with a quick solution on this?
 

Excel Facts

Which lookup functions find a value equal or greater than the lookup value?
MATCH uses -1 to find larger value (lookup table must be sorted ZA). XLOOKUP uses 1 to find values greater and does not need to be sorted.
