A couple of questions. First off, are you asking for a worksheet formula
solution or a VB solution? Second, what is the goal of looking for that last
space... in order to find the last "word" in the line? If so, that would be
the better question to ask... in other words, tell us what you are
ultimately trying to accomplish as there *may* (no guarantee) be a better
way to do it than the one you have in mind.
