Hi all

I have this in Cell m49
Birmingham v West Ham, 15:00
The contents are always displayed with the v in the middle after the hast
name a comma
In this case I would like the Birmingham to appear in cell o49 and west ham
to appear in p49 and ignore the 15:00

the two names change in size bur the v and comma always appear as shown above

Thanks for looking

In O49:
=LEFT(M49,FIND(" ",M49)-1)
in P49:
=MID(M49,FIND(" v ",M49)+3,FIND(",",M49)-FIND(" v ",M49)-3)
 
Without formulas.

Data>Text to Columns>Delimited by v and comma

Next......select the column with the time and "skip"

Destination...........O49

Finish.
