Pull Left & Right Text
 
This is probably very simple, but I need the formula for pulling characters
from the left and right of a text string. Thanks!

Look into MID() or RIGHT() or the LEFT() functions. RIGHT("string",4)
would result in "ring"

Is that what you mean?

Pull Left & Right Text
 
myText = "Hello World"
rText = Right(myText, 5) 'Returns "World"
lText = Left(myText, 5) 'Returns "Hello"
mText = Mid(myText, 6, 6) 'Returns " World"
