WinXP Pro SP3, xls 2k3

I have 2 app lists, neither of which I own, no standardized naming
convention. I need to do an inventory of web apps requiring browser
compatibility testing. I'm trying to compare my final list
(ApplicationListMaster!C:C) with a list dump from a script which queries all
app instances and posts them to a .php page (WebDump!D:D).

Problem: I can't use wildcards in my formula for the lookup value because
the value is referencing a cell. Or at least I don't know how. And yes,
unfortunately I will like to keep the lists in separate tabs. And sorting
changes so the formula cannot be tied to any specific sorting condition.

Ex.
ApplicationListMaster!C:C

My current formula: =match(D2,ApplicationListMaster!$C:$C,0) works when
there's an exact match (i.e. bandolier returns value "15", but cdp which
should return value "56" returns #N/A instead)

So how do I enter the formula, so that it will look up any match of *cdp*
within App list range. It won't let me use the (*) next to the cell reference
*D2* like I would be able to use if I were writing a text string ("*cdp*").
