Excel - IF Function Problem - Expert Solution

Question description:
This user has given permission to use the problem statement for this blog.

I want to find cells in which a word is duplicated. For example if A1 contains "house fish car house" it should be highlighted because "house" is double. The words can be in any position inside the cell so it could be "house house fish car" or "car house fish house"
