Using 2003

Would like to use a mid() to obtain all information in the text string (a
cell) up to the space before the "·" in (1029 · Money Market Acccount)

Therefore, in this case my formula would return "1029"

In another case my text is (1029-25 · Money Market Acccount)

In turn, my desired text would be "1029-25"

What combination of Find() or Mid() or what ever do I use to do the task?

Initially, I must ascertain how to obtain the chr() value of
the "·" character? No?
