Hi,
I have attached an example. I would like to be able to create a function that only returns text up to a certain "space' in a text string.
Thanks in advance for taking a look at this.

As a start:
=MID(B7,1,FIND(" ",B7,FIND(" ",B7)+1))
You may need to be more sophisticated if there are "sentences" with one or less spaces in them.
In 2007:
=IFERROR(MID(B7,1,FIND(" ",B7,FIND(" ",B7)+1)),B7)
Regards
