Default Multiple conditional formating for one cell

I have a workbook with several sheets. Sheet1 has several hundred rows of
text. Some of the same text will appear in multiple rows of Sheet1. On Sheet2
I have I have a cell that allows my users to free hand type in a keyword(s)
to search for in Sheet1. This cell is also has a reference name of
"Special_Char".

Now comes the question..... I like to for the user to type the keywork into
"Special_Char" and any or all the rows in Sheet1 that contain the keyword as
part of its text to turn yellow. Is there a way to do this? Please keep in
mind that the keywork is only part of the words in each of the cell. Your
help is appreciated in advance.
