Hello Amy,

You can try using a combination of SEARCH and INDEX-MATCH.

In cell U2 on Tab 1, try the following formula:

=IFERROR(INDEX(‘Tab 2’!B:B, MATCH(TRUE, ISNUMBER(SEARCH(‘Tab 2’!A:A, T2)), 0)), “”)

1. SEARCH(‘Tab 2’!A:A, T2) checks if any value from column A on Tab 2 is found in the text in column T on Tab 1.
2. INDEX(‘Tab 2’!B:B, …) returns the corresponding value from column B on Tab 2.
3. IFERROR handles cases where no match is found.

This should return the desired result in column U of Tab 1.
