    I have taken your sample set and produced the below output

     

    I created TBL1 which has Columns 1 and TBL2 which has the Column 2 containing text within which Column 1 is to searched.

    The Custom column was created using the below Transformation step

     

    If the solution matches your requirement, please let me know I will upload the PBIX file
