    issue with formula trimming data incorrectly

    I used the formula below to remove the word STEEL HOUSEHOLDWARES EUR1 0895557 to STEEL HOUSEHOLDWARES

    but sometimes there are STEEL HOUSEHOLDWARES EUR 1 0895557 it does not remove .


    However when there is description with the word eur it removes it completely,

    As per attached sample with issues in yellow
