Try something like this:

Sheet2!A1:A100 contains various text, some of which may contain 1000_hc45

On Sheet1
A1: 1000_hc45

This formula returns TRUE if at least
one cell in Sheet2!A1:A100 includes the text in A1:
B1: =COUNTIF(Sheet2!A1:A100,"*"&A1&"*")0

Is that something you can work with?
Post back if you have more questions.
