example: HINGE SBR.60X40MM (LEFT) BRASS (column G3)
all I need: HINGE 60x40mm brass (column c3)

I have been using a formula that has worked for most of my work but I think this one has more characters in the first word. Can someone please help?????

How to fill five years of quarters?
Type 1Q-2023 in a cell. Grab the fill handle and drag down or right. After 4Q-2023, Excel will jump to 1Q-2024. Dash can be any character.

Without more samples of the data and detailed explanations of the parsing rules, it is impossible to recommend a viable solution.
