Default lookup returning true or false

Hi there

Been asked by a colleague if there's a function that is in essence a search
function that returns true or false. I'm sure there is one but for the life
of me I can't think what it is!!

Basically what they're trying to do is have 6 columns of copious amounts of
data, and then a 7th column with only a few bits of data, and in column 8
they would like a true or false depending on whether the data in column 7
appears anywhere in columns 1-6.

Sounds pretty simple but I just can't think how to do it right now, help!!!

Many thanks,

Mike
