Default Find in string

Hi! I have a long list. I want to search column A and return a value in
column B for each row. In col A a have text a numbers. If the text "TRIP" is
found in a row and want to show a text in col B eg "trip repo". If it is not
found I want to show another text eg "repo". I seems easy but I tried
functions and they only return an error if the text is not found. How can I
do this? please help! /i use swedish excel so i dont really know the name of
the function that i tried in english). thanks!
