Default need to find value from one column in another column of the sa

One more thing to say is that if you find the error message disturbing, you
can enter this formula in D1:

=IF(ISERROR(C1),"Not Found","Found")

Assuming 8752 is in A1 and "Irr Ltd fxd 3609..." is in B2 you can enter this
formula in C1 to look up 8752:

=SEARCH(A1,B1)

If the text is found, the function returns the number of the character where
the text is first found. If it is not, a #VALUE! error message is displayed.
