Given my above assumptions apply, try

Code:
awk 'NR == FNR {T[$1]; next} {FN = $0; gsub (/^.*\/|.txt$/, _)} $0 in T {system ("echo cp " FN " /some/where")}' file2 file1
cp ./5_April_2012_Page323.txt /some/where
cp ./6_August_2012_Page328.txt /some/where
cp ./10_February_2014_Sportz6.txt /some/where

If happy, remove the echo command from the system() call.
