How can I use the find function for cell arrays to search for particular cell vector values

Suppose I have a cell array:
EC = {[1,2,1,1] [1,3,1,1] [1,4,1,1] [1,1,1,2]}
I need a way to index where the values of the cells = [1,3,1,1] or [1,1,1,2] such that MATLAB returns: [2,4] for the 2nd and 4th cells of array EC.
I've been trying to use the find function, but it doesn't appear you can use that for cell arrays...

EC = {[1,2,1,1] [1,3,1,1] [1,4,1,1] [1,1,1,2]} ;
k = {[1,3,1,1] [1,1,1,2]} ;
EC = cell2mat(EC(:)) ;
k = cell2mat(k(:)) ;
[val,idx] = ismember(k,EC,'rows') ;
idx

@Kevin: In the general case this command searchs if an element of A occurres in B:
[LIA, LocB] = ismember(A, B);
LIA is a logical index vector related to A (L I A), which is TRUE, if the corresponding element of A occurres in B, while LocB is the index of the matching element of B.

hi Kevin
the following builds a 2 columns cell where 1st column is just the numeral coinciding with EC amount of elements and 2nd column is variable length indicating what vector of D matches the i-th element of D
EC = {[1,2,1,1] [1,3,1,1] [1,4,1,1] [1,1,1,2]}
D={[1,3,1,1] [1,1,1,2] }
match={}
for k=1:1:size(EC,2)
match{k,1}=k;
for s=1:1:size(D,2)
if isequal(class(D{s}),class(EC{k})) && isequal(EC{k},D{s})
match{k}=[match{k} s];
end
end
end
match{:}
ans =
1
ans =
2 1
ans =
3
ans =
4 2
this script can be enhanced to include EC and D containing different classes.
