Default sorting question

Change primary data in "Sheet1" as follows:
A B
house zorro dog 1
mouse car extra 2
bike rocket 3


and use this in second sheet:
=VLOOKUP("*"&A1&"*",Sheet1!$A$1:$B$3,2,0)
and copy same to remaining cells

Default sorting question

you can also try this one:
=INDEX(Sheet1!A:A,MATCH("*"&A1&"*",Sheet1!B:B,0),1 )
once you enter this function press Ctrl+Shift+Enter key. bcos this is an
Array function
