Default vlookup part of string...

Hi All

Employee No.......................... Place
99440,994403,994404.............London
99442,994401,994405.............Manchester
994410..................................Leeds
994502..................................York

In above example hpw to vlookup part of string?
Each cell has multiple employee no. but i want to lookup single
employee no and it should return place.

e.g. If in above example if i vlookup "994403" then it should return
London

Can I do this?

vlookup function returning appropriate value for '994410' & '994502'
but not the rest!!

I tried FIND, SEARCH functions but these to functions are for single
cell and not for array... :(:(

Thanks!
