You don't HAVE to use a formula.

If you have multiple rows and you want to delete all the text up to an
including the colon and the space following the colon, simply select
the cells, press CTRL+H, Find "*: " (i.e. asterisk+colon+space) and
Replace All with blank. This assumes there is only one colon in each
cell.

This is a great formula, but some of my data have more than 20 characters.
Is there a formula that will trim the specialty: and leave the rest of the
data?

Earlier I suggested
=RIGHT(A1,LEN(A1)-FIND(" ",A1))
but it looks as if some news servers are not picking up all the messages.
