    Comparison of columns with multiple data

    This may be an easy one of many of you. But I have a spreadsheet where in column "D" I have a cost center (alphanumeric),
    Column D is the cost center currently showing for a given individual. In column "E" is a listing of all the potential cost centers
    that person may use. (For example, column D could have AB1122334455 and column E would contain AB1122334454,
    AB1122334455, AB1122334456 and AB1122334457. How can I do a form of a VLOOKUP where if the data in column D is
    found anywhere among the data in column E, then column F would return a value of No Change Required?
