It's not a UNIX.com rule at present, but personally I really dislike seeing 'URGENT' in the subject without any explanation of why

That said, I see you've also been active in helping others so I should probably just calm down
Not a very elegant solution but it should do the job (note that this will go all wrong if you have any spaces in the "/usr/orders1/order..." names in your list).
Code:
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
my %lines;
while (<>) {
if (/^\s*([^\s]+) (.*)$/) {
$lines{$1}.="$lines{$1}:$2";
}
}
foreach $key keys(%lines) {
print "$key $lines{$key}\n";
}

look
LOOK(1) General Commands Manual LOOK(1)NAME
look - find lines in a sorted list
SYNOPSIS
look [ -dfnixtc ] [ string ] [ file ]
DESCRIPTION
Look consults a sorted file and prints all lines that begin with string. It uses binary search.
The following options are recognized. Options dfnt affect comparisons as in sort(1).
-i Interactive. There is no string argument; instead look takes lines from the standard input as strings to be looked up.
-x Exact. Print only lines of the file whose key matches string exactly.
-d `Directory' order: only letters, digits, tabs and blanks participate in comparisons.
-f Fold. Upper case letters compare equal to lower case.
-n Numeric comparison with initial string of digits, optional minus sign, and optional decimal point.
-t[c] Character c terminates the sort key in the file. By default, tab terminates the key. If c is missing the entire line comprises the
key.
If no file is specified, /lib/words is assumed, with collating sequence df.
FILES
/lib/words
SOURCE
/sys/src/cmd/look.c
SEE ALSO sort(1), grep(1)DIAGNOSTICS
The exit status is "not found" if no match is found, and "no dictionary" if file or the default dictionary cannot be opened.
