Clarification needed if possible.

Whats the difference between the expressions CONTAIN and IN?

I am looking for the function to search for a word in a column, but it may be part of several words in a list.

Thanks in advance.

@geoff_gardener In a list of: {โ€œThis is Geoffโ€, โ€œtest1โ€}

IN(โ€œGeoffโ€,LIST(โ€œThis is Geoffโ€, โ€œtest1โ€)) returns FALSE

however

CONTAINS(LIST(โ€œThis is Geoffโ€, โ€œtest1โ€),โ€œGeoffโ€) returns TRUE
