    Excel Formula to extra partial data based on a Delimiter

    Hi,

    I am trying to create Folder names for different project folders based using "&" function.

    However one of the data in a cell has a "/" symbol included so when I copy the folder name the / symbol cannot be copied.

    Below for example-

    Invoice No. - FZE 8011
    Reference Number - FPO-2256/2023
    Client - Mechatronics Industrial Equipment L.L.C

    Using a Formula The result I get is FZE 8011 - FPO-2256/2023 - Mechatronics Industrial Equipment L.L.C

    The result I want is FZE 8011 - FPO-2256 - Mechatronics Industrial Equipment L.L.C.

    So basically in the Reference number cell whatever comes after "/" should be removed. Please advise how I can extract or select only partial data from reference cell. Attached sheet for reference. AUMA reference cell I want to extract only the text before "/".

    Re: Excel Formula to extra partial data based on a Delimiter

    are still using 2010 version

    if 365 / later version text before
    =A2 & " - " &TEXTBEFORE(D2,"/")& " - " &F2
    will they always have a /
    if not
    =A2 & " - " &IFERROR(TEXTBEFORE(D2,"/"),D2)& " - " &F2

    Otherwise
    =A2 & " - " &LEFT(D2,SEARCH("/",(D2))-1)& " - " &F2

    will they always have a /
    otherwise the above will give an error
    =A2 & " - " &IFERROR(LEFT(D2,SEARCH("/",(D2))-1),D2)& " - " &F2
