Default searching for the first few characters in an active cell

If the active cell has the first 7 characters = "example", I want it to return a value in another cell. ie,

"example 7", "example fourty nine" and "example spiderman"

would all return a value, where as...

"7", "fourty nine" and "spiderman"

would not.

TIA
Chris
