Excel Facts

Ambidextrous Undo
Undo last command with Ctrl+Z or Alt+Backspace. If you use the Undo icon in the QAT, open the drop-down arrow to undo up to 100 steps.
Maybe

=LEFT(A1,FIND(".@",SUBSTITUTE(A1,".",".@",LEN(A1)-LEN(SUBSTITUTE(A1,".","")))))

Hi Tera201,

Great!.. Its working fine.

Also, I want to split First name and last in the same Name. Could you please help me to get the formula for the same.

Example: 1.ao.Univ.Prof. Dr. Peter Bettelheim
2. apl.Prof. Dr. Siegfried Georg Priglinger

Output should be:
1. First Name last name
Peter Bettelheim
2. First Name last name
Siegfried Georg Priglinger

Kindly do the needful
