Default Custom Number Format Text

I have a spreadsheet with custom formatting of a number to show the currency
name as text. This is a download from another application, so I have no
control of how it is formatted or the output. For example, I might see the
following cells in a given single column :

4,234 EUR
1,453 USD
2,999 CHF

These will all follow the custom format "#,##0 XXX" where XXX is the
currency type.

How can I split off the text portion of the format to another column? If my
orginal cell was A1, how could I make cell A2 = A1(CustomFormatTextOnly)

I am open to a VBA solution for this as well, but could not figure out how
to isolate the text.

Frank
