Hi,

good day!.

I have Column A - which has paragraph about product. Similarly I have Column B which contain many rows.

Need to check is there any string Match in Column B.if any substring match then I have to pull "Serial No" Value to output sheet.

 

Source:

 Serial NoColumn A
 1Product1 is available, Product 2 is also available.

 

Serial NoColumn B
1Product available are Product1,Product2,product3
2Base Product is Product5
3Product1 also available
4Product2

 

 

Expected Output:

Column AOutput(Serial No)
Product1 is available, Product 2 is also available.1
Product1 is available, Product 2 is also available.3
Product1 is available, Product 2 is also available.4
