VLookup IF word in string exists within cell, use the word.

Hi guys

My brain has been fried. I've tried several methods from forums an
things, but as I haven't managed to tailor a working solution, I nee
some pro-tip advice

Basically I have a data source feeding columns and rows. The goal is t
take the source and list next to each row, whether the delivery breache
SLA. So far I have done the following

Cell U2 = "=IF(ISBLANK(Y2),"-",(NETWORKDAYS(Y2,$Z$1-1,BankHoliday)))
Producing = How many work days it's taken from the 'Call Raised Date
cell (C2

Cell Y2 = "=--INT((SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(C2,"[",""),"PM]","")))
Producing = Date stamp in format '07/12/2012', used to compare Day
Taken (Cell U2) against the SLA (which I need your help on) in cell V2
The reason why I use this method in Cell Y2 is because the data sourc
produces a date and time stamp printed as '07/12/2012 09:13:00' which o
course is horrible for using when working out SLA breaches with othe
figures

Cell W2 = "=IF(ISTEXT(U2),"",IF(U2>V2,"Yes","No"))
Producing = Whether this row (call) is out of SLA, based on the cel
which I need your help on (matching the catergory of the call b
searching for a word which will match against the table of catergorie
and SLA's)

What I need to bring all of this together is

Cell V2 = "insert working function
Producing = The SLA based upon a word within cell B2 (produced by th
data source), which would (if found) match against a VLookUp table an
produce the SLA

Now I have this function, however it doesn't work

"=IFERROR(LOOKUP(2^15,SEARCH('Reporting Sheet'!$L$5:$M$12,B2)
'Reporting Sheet'!$L$5:$M$12),"")

Bare in mind, the Reporting Sheet and table between L5 & M12, is th
table displaying SLA against particular words


Thank you for reading
