It works perfectly!

Thank you. This has been about to drive me more nuts than I already am.

It just goes to show, no matter how much one thinks he has learned, the
surface has only begun to be scratched.

Sounds like you need the InStrRev() function. It finds the LAST instance of a
search string within a source string, but the return value is relative to the
regular order.

strC = "Names Places Cities"

intRev = InStrRev(strC,"")

strLast = Trim(Mid(strC,intRev + 1))

Range("D3").Value = strLast

I have a column which contains data separated by " " in two or more
locations within each cell. I need to paste the farthest right data into
another cell.

Example: Names Places Cities etc.

I have searched the Posts her for an idea but nothing gets the desired
result. I have even tried replacing " " with " " but there still are two
or more of these.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
