Default Can I extract the only second word?

Gary

Split() by default takes space as delimiter and hence

Split(range("A1"))(1)

is enough

and if a code solution is preferable:

split(range("A1")," ")(1) ' BASSAM

How can I extract the second word in a cell into a cell? I don't
want the first word or any other words to go with it into the new cell
from
company name.
e. g. from AL BASSAM INTERNATIONAL FACTORIES extract BASSAM only.
Also I would like to know to extract only third word in case I may need
for
future alternatively.
