Find function using chr

Hi,

I have a single cell with text that contains multiple lines (ie text
separated by a chr(10) I think).

I want to get the text from the cell starting with the first character
up untill but not including the first chr(10).

I presume you use a combination of LEFT , FIND and CHR(10) - but I
just cant seem to get the syntax right.

Could anyone out there help me with this simple problem?

Gary
