    Try:

    =INDEX(Master!$B$3:$B$40,MATCH(1,SEARCH("*"&Master!$A$3:$A$40&"*",A4),0))
    which must be confirmed with CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER not just ENTER.. you will see { } brackets appear around the formula...

    then copy down.
    Where there is a will there are many ways.

    Is it possible to use this code in a macro where the table will be built right into the macro?
