You didn't attach an example, so we can pretend you data is in Column A.
Then in B1:
=IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH("Person 2 stated:",A1)),MID(A1,1,SEARCH("Person 2 stated:",A1)-1),A1)
and copy downwards
Make Mom proud: Add to my reputation if I helped out!
Make the Moderators happy: Mark the Thread as Solved if your question was answered!
Or maybe this one
=IFERROR(TRIM(REPLACE(A1,SEARCH("Person",A1),LEN(A1),"")),A1)
