Default Lookup text in 1 column and note it in another

How do I find certain text in one column and note it in another.
Example: Column P has Title and Regular in it. I want to note each time
Title is found and note it with an X in column B.

Column B Column P
X Title
Regular

X Title
Thanks for your help.
