Thinking of it there are still a number of other methods. Using text to
columns and @ as the delimiter could also work. :-)

Thanks Jon - I look forwars to working through your formula to understand it.

What I tried in the meantime (and it worked - however it may be just luck)
was to use Ctrl-H (Replace) and inserted a wild card * in the search for
string and then replaced it with nothing (resulst into a new column);

Replace *@ with [nothing] and it worked.

However - I like yours better as it will probably be more reliable.

Thanks for the help.

btw - go the Wallabies!

Hi,

Assume appears in A1. In B1 I would insert the
following formula: =RIGHT(A1,LEN(A1)-FIND("@",A1,1))

Cheers,

How do I remove all text to the left of the @ in an email address? I have a
column with email addresses and I want to create a new column with just the
text that is to the right of the @ symbol. In other words,
is the existing data and I want to create a new column with just the msn.com
string.
