Default Part of text as criteria


While Practising my skills I encountered following prob:

Col 'B' = Region, C= Product and D is quantities

Formula to sum quantities sold of product "Beta" to East region:

=SUM(IF((B5:B10="EAST")*(C5:C10="beta"),D5:D10, 0))

(i hope the above formula is efficient enough)

But when I put "Eastern" in any of the cell in Col 'B' it wont give me
the desired result. So I want the 1st condition to look like
B5:B10="East*" but even changing to this i could get the resuts. I have
even tried B5:B10="East& "*"" but doesnt worked.....

Please help!
