Excel Facts

When they said...
When they said you are going to "Excel at life", they meant you "will be doing Excel your whole life".
Assuming the data is in A2:A10

B2

Code:
=MID(A2,SEARCH(" ",A2),LEN(A2))

I am trying to create usernames by pulling the first two letters of column D, the first two letters of column C, and the last three digits of column G. Is there a way to do that?

Thank you.
