Default Matching CELL text (full word) to full word in string in another

I am not the greatest at programig this is what I have.

I recieved a data files with COLUMB A [ FISRT NAME] COLUMB B [LAST NAME]
now columb c is suppose to have just the address but it has the first and
last name in it as well. See below.

example:
COLUMB A | COLUMB B COLUMBC
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
John |Smith | John Smith 123 loveless drive Cville ST 12345

I would like to use COLUMB B "last name" find the string in COLUMB C and
trim from the charector count it finds from the end of the last name to the
begining of the cell. Can anyone help.
Thank you in advance.

Dan
