Default Omit the first word from a cell contain text

Hi all,

I have a column of cells containing text strings, and I want to omit the
first word from each cell, which are of varying character lengths. I can do
it the long winded way using a combination of the text functions (i.e. left,
mid etc..), but is there a quicker way to omit the first word? The character
lengths of the first word vary from 4 to about 9 characters. I have over
10000 cells to check.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Regards,


Bhupinder Rayat
