Perhaps not exactly what you are looking for but perhaps will spark some thought: &nbsp; =if(iserror(find(K2,R2,1))<wbr />,ʺNot Foundʺ,ʺFoundʺ)

Thank you Steven. <br />

Not exactly because it needs to search the entire K column. but I am wondering if this is the clue needed.

One more question regarding my spreadsheet.<br />
<br />
I need a way to compare a list of email addresses against a list of names.<br />
Using: =IF(ISNA(MATCH(R2,sort(FIL<wbr />TER({$K$2:<wbr />$K$93}, LEN({$K$2:$K$93}))),0)), &quot;Not Found&quot;, &quot;Found&quot;)<br />
<br />
And comparing a column K, which contains: Alayna Sergio<br />
... against column R, which contains: Alayna Sergio &lt;alayna.sergio@group.com&gt;<br />
<br />
Results in &quot;not found&quot;. That is because it is looking for a precise match. Is there a way to search for just the name?<br />
<br />
Here is the sample spreadsheet:<br />

Comparing a list of names against a list of names/email addresses?

A spreadsheet is an interactive computer application program for organization, analysis and storage of data in tabular form. Spreadsheets developed as computerized simulations of paper accounting worksheets. The program operates on data represented as cells of an array, organized in rows and columns. Each cell of the array may contain either numeric or text data, or the results of formulas that automatically calculate and display a value based on the contents of other cells.
