I want to check whether a cell contains a partial match with a text string in another cell.
Say A1 contains the string ABCDEFG, I want to check if B1 contains any part of ABCDEFG - eg ABC or CDE or DEFG.
But I don't want to have to manually enter "ABC" or "CDE" or "DEFG" in searching for a match, I want this to occur automatically based on the string that is (in this example) in A1.
How can I do this?
