    Hello Faddies, welcome to the forum.

    It appears you want to remove the last three characters from each cell in a column, not the last three words. Correct me if I'm wrong. To remove the last 3 characters from cell A2 using a formula in B2:

    =LEFT(A2,LEN(A2)-3)

    Fill that formula down column B for as many entries as you have in column A.
