Default calculating strings (excel 2002)

I'd like to calculate how many cells contain a certain substring in
excel 2002.
The if -worksheet function seems to recognize only the whole contents
of the cell, not a part of it. Does anybody know how to do this in
excel?


=if(A1="abc";"found";"not found")

,don't find the string, if the contents of A1 is for example
"ccabcdd".
