Assume my data is in column A. A bunch of names, varying in length. I want to use a LEFT function in column B, but I want it to capture everything left of the second space.

Thanks

How to change case of text in Excel?
Use =UPPER() for upper case, =LOWER() for lower case, and =PROPER() for proper case. PROPER won't capitalize second c in Mccartney
