Default Excel help separating /

Hi,

Am Tue, 10 Sep 2013 12:25:45 -0700 (PDT) schrieb :

I am working on spreadsheet that has a list of names in the following format: ?Your T Name/the company?
I used the following formula to list the last name in an adjacent cell: =IF(ISERROR(SEARCH(" ",A101,SEARCH(" ",A101)+1)),RIGHT(A101,LEN(A101)-SEARCH(" ",A101)),RIGHT(A101,LEN(A101)-SEARCH(" ",A101,SEARCH(" ",A101)+1)))
However, since this list includes our internal email address the results are coming up as follows: ?Name /the company? Can someone help me by providing a formula to remove the ?/the company? from the last name field?


try insert a new column right of your column = Data =TextToColumns =
Separated = Separator = / and don't import the column with company

Regards
Claus B.
