For example, your original data is colum A, your result data is colum B

Sub MrExcel()    Dim sArr(), dArr(), Tmp
    Dim I As Long, J As Long, K As Long
    
    sArr = Range("A2", Range("A2").End(xlDown)).Value
    ReDim dArr(1 To UBound(sArr), 1 To 1)
    For I = 1 To UBound(sArr)
        K = K + 1
        Tmp = Split(sArr(I, 1), " ")
        For J = 1 To UBound(Tmp)
            dArr(K, 1) = Trim(dArr(K, 1) & " " & Tmp(J))
        Next J
    Next I
    Range("B2").Resize(K) = dArr
End Sub

Hi vanthinh3101, thanks for your reply. But i want the result in A2 itself.

Your code

Sub MrExcel()
    Dim sArr(), dArr(), Tmp
    Dim I As Long, J As Long, K As Long
    
    sArr = Range("A2", Range("A2").End(xlDown)).Value
    ReDim dArr(1 To UBound(sArr), 1 To 1)
    For I = 1 To UBound(sArr)
        K = K + 1
        Tmp = Split(sArr(I, 1), " ")
        For J = 1 To UBound(Tmp)
            dArr(K, 1) = Trim(dArr(K, 1) & " " & Tmp(J))
        Next J
    Next I
    Range("A2").Resize(K) = dArr
End Sub

Thanks Its is very useful for me. I have a another scenario similar to this please solve this too. It will be more helpful for me. Now i want to search the whole C column for the text "Name" and delete the letters before the 1st space below that Name cell. Name text could be in different cells in C column

For your request, I rewrote the code.
You need to choose input data and type output cell.
Have a nice day.

Sub MrExcel()
    Dim Arr, dArr(), Tmp, Rng As String
    Dim I As Long, J As Long, K As Long
    
    Arr = Application.InputBox("Select input data", "Mr. Excel", Type:=8)
    ReDim dArr(1 To UBound(Arr), 1 To 1)
    For I = 1 To UBound(Arr)
        K = K + 1
        Tmp = Split(Arr(I, 1), " ")
        For J = 1 To UBound(Tmp)
            dArr(K, 1) = Trim(dArr(K, 1) & " " & Tmp(J))
        Next J
    Next I
    Rng = Application.InputBox("Type output cell", "Mr. Excel")
    Range(Rng).Resize(K) = dArr
End Sub
