This is in several cells to make it easier to follow. You can combine it
into one cell if you like:

in A1:
Churchill County - Cottonwood Canyon - Geology
in A2:
=FIND("-",A1,1)+2 where center text starts
in A3:
=FIND("-",A1,A2)-1 where center text ends
in A4
=MID(A1,A2,A3-A2)

The trick is finding the second "-" by starting after the first one!!

What is the easiest way to extract the text between the " - " in this cell

Churchill County - Cottonwood Canyon - Geology

I can start the pull out oaky from the left, but how do I go to the " - " on
the right? It seems easy but haven't found the right function or a group of
functions yet.

Thanks for the help in advance.
