Default VBA versus Worksheet function

Friends,
I am trying to manipulate string in a column. The input
column is represented by the following values:
I_need_This_aaa
I_need_This_bbb I_dont_need_this_nnn
I_dont_need_this_xxx "I_need_this_ccc" not_this_yyy

the resultant column i am needing should look something
like this:
I_need_This_aaa
I_need_This_bbb
I_need_this_ccc

As my example represents, the initial few characters of
the required string are always common. And i have 1000s
of rows in this column.

So, can you help me out device a method to extract the
string either using a worksheet function or a VBA script.

Appreciate your help.

Prashant
