Is this possible?

Say I had data in a cell that had a load of commas in it, and I wanted only the text after the last comma, is this possible? Unfortunately I cannot get excel to split data into cells by commas and then delete as there isn't a uniform number of commas in the cells in question.

Thanks in advance
 

Excel Facts

What do {} around a formula in the formula bar mean?
{Formula} means the formula was entered using Ctrl+Shift+Enter signifying an old-style array formula.
Try...

=TRIM(REPLACE(A1,1,SEARCH("^^",SUBSTITUTE(A1,",","^^",LEN(A1)-LEN(SUBSTITUTE(A1,",","")))),""))

Hope this helps!

Try:

=RIGHT(A1,LEN(A1)-FIND("@",SUBSTITUTE(A1,",","@",LEN(A1)-LEN(SUBSTITUTE(A1,",","")))))
