I'm posting this again in the hopes that someone has an answer. I am not
having any luck with the 'Find' or 'Search' functions. I am wanting to take a delimited string in a cell (B2) containing multiple data elements and compare it to an array ($AA$2:$AA$10), then have the matching data from the cell trimmed and displayed in a neighboring cell (C2). I believe the best result would be for it to return the value(s) that match one or more of the data elements in $AA$2:$AA$10. From the example below, if I could have B2 contain the string, C2 would contain the function that gives me the result of the match. For instance, $AA$2:$AA$10 contains: ACLEMON BDUFOUR BLANGLI DDILUCE DWELLS ESCOTT KRENKER THUMENI WROCHES If B2 contains: MROMANO|MTELLIG|JGURECK|MWOLK|LGAZDA|GVANBUH|CSHOA F|STILLER|RVERBIC|DSTEPHE|BLANGLI C2 should return a result of BLANGLI. If there is more than one piece of matching data, then it would be great if C2 could display the multiple items in a new pipe-delimited string. Then, I want to do this for the remaining cells (B3 to B146) in a successive list. Any advice on accomplishing this is GREATLY appreciated. Thanks in advance!
