I need to cut everything up to and including "v." from each row. The first
row below should read "County of Suffolk, 2007 WL 4565160 (E.D.N.Y. Dec. 21,
2007)"

Toussie v. County of Suffolk, 2007 WL 4565160 (E.D.N.Y. Dec. 21, 2007)

Trammell v. Anderson Coll., 2006 WL 1997425 (D.S.C. July 17, 2006)

Any help?

Sub parsestring1()

For Each c In Range("d3:d7")

x = InStr(c, "v") + 2
c.Offset(, 1) = Right(c, Len(c) - x)

You didn't say which column the data is in. This macro assumes it is in
column A.
You can modify accordingly.

Sub getCase()
Dim x As Long, s As Long, c As Range
For Each c In Range("A" & Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Row)
If InStr(c.Value, "v") 0 Then
x = InStr(Range("A2"), "v") + 2
s = Right(Range("A2"), Len(Range("A2").Value) - x)
MsgBox s 'For test only, substitute cells posting code
End If
Next
End Sub

Just realized I left test syntax in the code.
This will work better.

Sub getCase()
For Each c In Range("A" & Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Row)
If InStr(c.Value, "v") 0 Then
x = InStr(c.Value, "v") + 2
s = Right(c.Value, Len(Range("A2").Value) - x)
MsgBox s
End If
Next
End Sub

If any of the lines do not have a space after v. then it will clip the first
letter of the next word off. Be sure to edit for that.

This doesn't work if there is a "v" in the first name. e.g:

Travelers Ins v. Valerie Cohn, 2006 WL 1997425 (D.S.C. July 17, 2006)

The macro below will place everything after the "v. " in the cell to the right
of "Selection".

============================================
Sub Defendant()
Dim c As Range
Dim re As Object
Set re = CreateObject("vbscript.regexp")
re.Global = True
re.Pattern = "^.*\bv\.\s+"

For Each c In Selection
If re.test(c.Value) = False Then
c.Offset(0, 1) = "no ""v. "" in string"
Else
c.Offset(0, 1).Value = re.Replace(c.Value, "")
End If
Next c
End Sub
================================================
--ron

Good catch. But it does if you just add a dot after the v
v.

Of course <sound of hand slapping side of head.

I didn't look at the code closely, just the results.

It might be more robust, though, if you looked for
<spacev.<space

Probably should be case sensitive also to avoid splitting on a name that
includes a V. (V.S. INT'L is a company name).

I'm working in a Mac. None of the macros are working. ??? Or maybe I not
doing something correctly on my end. I'll go try these on a PC but should
there be a problem?

Well that was a little confusing, but I think this might do what you
want.

Code:
--------------------
Sub getCase()
Dim c As Excel.Range
Dim x As Long
Dim s() As String
For Each c In Range("A1:A" & Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Row)
s = Split(c.Value, " v. ")
c.Value = s(0)
c.Offset(0, 1).Value = s(1)
Next
End Sub
