Column A is not in the proper order. It has URLs that I need to put into column C according to the order of column B. Column B also has a portion of the URL that would be an exact match.

Example:

Somewhere In column A:
https://www.wheelchairparts.com/store/pc/Aluminum-Hip-Thigh-Trunk-Support-Bracket-Straight-p999.htm

Somewhere In column B:
Aluminum-Hip-Thigh-Trunk-Support-Bracket-Straight

I need column B to stay in order, so put the match in column C.

URL could also look like:
https://www.wheelchairparts.com/sto...ength-Armrest-6-7-8-Hole-Spacing-Black-p9.htm

and in column B:
Padded-Quickie-Full-Length-Armrest-6-7-8-Hole-Spacing-Black
 

Excel Facts

What is the fastest way to copy a formula?
If A2:A50000 contain data. Enter a formula in B2. Select B2. Double-click the Fill Handle and Excel will shoot the formula down to B50000.
What version of Excel do you have? If 365 then perhaps:
=FILTER(A:A,ISNUMBER(SEARCH(B1,A:A)))
