    Remove UPPERCASE text from cells

    I know there's a way to do this, just can't figure it out. I'm trying to REMOVE any uppercase text from cells with mixed case text, e.g., uppercase text at the end of lowercase text that no longer is relevant). Can someone clue me in?
    Thanks!

    Re: Remove UPPERCASE text from cells

    If you wish to remove all Upper Case text from a cell you can use the LOWER function, for example:

    Formula: copy to clipboard

    This would display the contents of A1 as all lower case. Is this what your're looking to do?

    Or maybe this:

    =PROPER(A1)

    No, I want to go from this:
    Franz Klammer Lodge FRANZ
    Hotel Columbia HOTEL
    Hotel Madeline MADE
    Hotel Telluride HOTET
    Hyatt Grand Aspen HYATT

    to this:
    Franz Klammer Lodge

    It looks like you want everything to the left of the LAST word.

    Data Range
    A
    B
    1
    Franz Klammer Lodge FRANZ
    Franz Klammer Lodge
    2
    Hotel Columbia HOTEL
    Hotel Columbia
    3
    Hotel Madeline MADE
    Hotel Madeline
    4
    Hotel Telluride HOTET
    Hotel Telluride
    5
    Hyatt Grand Aspen HYATT
    Hyatt Grand Aspen


    This formula entered in B1 and copied down:

    =SUBSTITUTE(A1," "&TRIM(RIGHT(SUBSTITUTE(A1," ",REPT(" ",50)),50)),"")
