Default Modify Index with Match Formula

I am trying to modify the below formula to look for a single word within a
series of cells instead of matching the entire value and if it finds the word
in a cell then it returns the value of an adjacent cell from where it was
found.

In the example below I am trying to match the word "Maybe" and if it finds
it within a string of text in a cell then it returns the value of what is in
"W"


IF(ISNA(INDEX($W:$W,MATCH("Maybe",$R:$R,0),1)),"No ",INDEX($W:$W,MATCH("Maybe",$R:$R,0),1))


Is this possible or am I S.O.L.?


Thanks In Advance,
Rob
