Default Deleting information in cells

DataText to ColumnsDelimited bySpaceNext

SHIFT + select the columns you don't need and "do not import column(skip)"

Finish and you're done.

When I imported lists from Outlook into an excel spreadsheet, the data for
the "email" column imported not only the email address, but unwanted info as
well

example:
SMTP Ashley Williams )

How do I clean up the "SMTP Ashley Williams )" and end
up with the email address only?

Thanks!
