Measure to check if result from one measure is contained within result from another measure

I have two measures that return country names based on max formulas , some of the returned values contain multiple countries , seperated by a comma. so my current measure i am using is not matching any data which has multiple countries as it would not be an exact match.

Example : 

Measure --  Op Country = United States

Measure --  Max Base = Mexcio,United States

so my measure :  

Measure -- Matched Country = If([Op Country]=[Max Base],"Yes","No") , only works if there is just one unique Max Base result
Is there a formula to say if Op Country exist within Max Base , then Yes

Hi , @Pandadev 

You can try function CONTAINSSTRING  :

 

Matched Country = IF(CONTAINSSTRING([M_maxbase],[M_op_country]),"Yes","No")

 

 The result will show as below:

By the way ,CONTAINSSTRING is not case-sensitive.

@Pandadev Yes, you could use FIND, SEARCH or even SUBSTITUTE
