@sdixit please use descriptive titles. BASE SASE is uninformative and will not help future users searching for a similar solution.
As indicated above you can use either
INDEXW or FINDW to find a phrase in another piece of text.
Look at the examples in the documentation:

Is Variable A always a State name? Do you have a requirement to match Variable A = "North Carolina" to NC in variable B?
Or NC in Variable A to "North Carolina" in Variable B?
