Matching a String in a Cell Against an Entire Column
My goal is to check if a string in the first column, appears somewhere in another column. I want it to be a match if any of the following properties hold:
  1. Strings match exactly
  2. Strings match regardless of case-sensitivity 
  3. Strings match even if only partial
I have created an example to better illustrate my question: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1lyGKdR7g8yx2tK4bKGRoxN7AZqsjSq6tbAO0wkpd2hU/edit?usp=sharing 

I would appreciate any help here!

Thank you!
