Default Extracting text before ~ sign

Hi Everyone,


Please help me with your expertise. I have this type of data
(12345~Sample), that series is a code followed by the code name. Now I
want to get only the code after the ~ sign, my problem is the code is
not fix, some codes consist of 3 characters only so I cannot just use
the simple left(A1,#) formula.


Thanks in advance!


Jerome
