Default find certain text and display it

Hey All, I am looking for an excel formula that can look into a cell
and find certain text and display it. an example may be more useful,
i have a cell with data like this in coulmns "(11, 1 DATA, ABC, 22)
DATA" and (22, 2 DATA, DEF, 33) DATA" and i need to be able to search
both those cells for "ABC" and "DEF" and if it appears, display it in
a different cell. i know how this can be done for just one string but
i will need to look for 5 different ones.
