I have a column with a keyword at each row. Now I want to check, row for
row, if any of these keywords occurs in another column.

Ex:
KEYWORDS
test
alpha

COLUMN A[/b] | [b]COLUMN B
Row tow bow | FALSE
Pest test best | TRUE
Alpha beta gamma | TRUE
xor or and | FALSE

Thanks in advance!

Try using the "FIND" function. It allows you to find text within a cell
with text.

If the text is not found it returns a #Value.

Then use the "ISERR" function to determine if you have a match.

You may need to use more than one column to get the result you want.

Hope this helps.

The problem is that FIND only uses one word of my keywords as a
reference. I want i to go through all my keywords that are listed at
once without having to use a column per keyword.
