I have the following info in cell D5: MECH^CHU-BSW-PF

Using the following VBA code what do I add to take out the MECH^ part of the text string in cell D5?

My code needs to stay in this format just FYI.

Code:
    AddFormula TopLeft.Offset(1, 2).Resize(RowCount, 1), "=IFERROR(LEFT(AA" & Row & ",FIND(""^"",AA" & Row & ")+10),"""")"

What does custom number format of ;;; mean?
Three semi-colons will hide the value in the cell. Although most people use white font instead.
It's hard to understand what you want, since your existing code does not reference D5.

The expression to return the value of D5 with "MECH^" removed is

Code:
Replace(Range("D5"), "MECH^", "")

but I have no idea how you want to use that in your existing code.
