Default help on sumproduct() - sum by searching for a common sub string in

Hi
Can anyone help me on this. thanks in advance.
I am getting answer required by the following formula
=SUMPRODUCT(--(DREGION="HQ BLNG EAST")+(DREGION="HQ BLNG WEST")+(DREGION="HQ
BLNG NORTH")+(DREGION="HQ BLNG SOUTH"),MISDUE)
Where the first part is constant "HQ BLNG".
Is there any way to search the string in range DREGION and find the sum.
Like "HQ BLNG xxxx", "xxxx TRANSPORT xxxx", "xxxxx xxxxx FREIGHT"
xxxx i mean to say that it could be any string.

Thank you
