How to get the right-most word from TEXT
 

Try this:

For text, including spaces, in A1
B1: =RIGHT(A11,LEN(A11)-LOOKUP(LEN(A11),FIND("
",A11,ROW(INDEX($A:$A,1,1):INDEX($A:$A,LEN(A11),1) ))))

That formula pulls the text after the last space from A1.

Does that help?

Some typos in that formula:

B1: =RIGHT(A11,LEN(A11)-LOOKUP(LEN(A11),FIND("
",A11,ROW(INDEX($A:$A,1,1):INDEX($A:$A,LEN(A11),1) ))))

The refs to A11 should be to A1

Correct formula:
B1: =RIGHT(A1,LEN(A1)-LOOKUP(LEN(A1),FIND("
",A1,ROW(INDEX($A:$A,1,1):INDEX($A:$A,LEN(A1),1))) ))

(Sorry for any confustion)
