Hi,

I want to omit the right part of a text string that starts with "(" and ends
in ")" while returning the left part of the text string. I would have a cell
that contains a name such as "Lysell, Kent". Right after this name a number
in parenthesis is concatenated. For example, I would need to return only
"Lysell, Kent" from "Lysell, Kent(111)". This number might be 1 to 4 digits
long. Is there a formula that would omit this number in parethesis -
including the parenthesis - while returning just the name?

Thanks in advance!
