Default remove text after character

I'm writing a macro that will do a number of things, but I'm having trouble
with one part of it. I have a column that has text in it's values. What i
want to do is remove any text that is in parenthesis. So I a basically need
to remove anything after the "(" in a text string. If there are no
parenthesis in the cell then it should leave it alone. I'm sure this is
pretty easy, but I can't get the Find method to combine with Left to make is
work.
