you can always use a helper cell or two.
say your text is in column a
in column b, enter
="abc.com/catalog/" & a1
add spaces or whatever to make it like you want it.
then drag down b1 down the column as far as you need to go.
now highlight all of the cells in column b that say what you want.
copy it, and paste the values in column a.
delete column b.

hope that helps!
