Default Function/Macro that keeps first X characters in a cell and delets rest


So , i need a macro/function that keeps the first X characters in a cell
( the number is given ) and deletes the remaining characters

Example

In a cell i have the following text : *Mother and father*
I want the macro to keep the first 8 characters . So , in that cell ,
the result should be : *Mother a* . When i mean charcaters , i take into
consideration letter , space or number
