Macro which delets in a cell all characters after comma
 

Hi guys !

I have a lot of cells with text , empty spaces etc . All cells contain
a "," (comma) . I need a macro that delets all after that comma ,
including comma . I give in example :

A1 : mother, father

The result should be :

A1 : mother

Many thanks !

If you want to get rid of everything after the first (or only) comma, you could
record a macro when:

You select the range to fix
edit|replace
what: ,* (comma followed by an asterisk)
with: (leave blank)
replace all

Be aware that if your data looks like this befo
asdf,qwer,1234,erty
then you'll end up with:
asdf
when you're done.
