Excel Facts

What does custom number format of ;;; mean?
Three semi-colons will hide the value in the cell. Although most people use white font instead.
Re: Find proper case put dilimater afetr upper case

Are there always three groups of letters and/or numbers in the proper case section?

just put delimater after upper case ^

This does NOT answer my question! I understand what you want to do. In order to be able to help, we need to know if the format of the text in proper case in your sample data will always be the same, i.e. three groups of letters/numbers, like Krasnoyarsk Kirsanov 4862.

Re: Find proper case put dilimater afetr upper case

Sub MG14Dec48
Dim str As String, n As Long, nStr As String
str = [a1]
For n = Len([a1]) To 1 Step -1
If Mid(str, n, 1) = " " Then
If Mid(str, n - 1, 1) = UCase(Mid(str, n - 1, 1)) Then
nStr = Left(str, n - 1) & " { " & Right(str, Len(str) - n)
Exit For
End If
End If
Next n
Range("A2").Value = nStr
End Sub

ITworking for a2 cell only can u make it

You should have said that you wanted a VBA solution in your thread title! Please be patient.

Re: Find proper case put dilimater afetr upper case

You could use this UDF.
FindCaseWord will find the first location of the first word that is in the indicated case.
Note that "1234" is in Proper Case. It is also in lower case and UPPER CASE. Use of the IgnoreNumerals argument.
Note also that "A123" is not a numeral and it is in both UPPER and Proper cases

Use the formula =REPLACE(A1,FIndCaseWord(3, A1),0,"^ ")

Code:
Function FindCaseWord(find_Case As VbStrConv, within_String As String, _
        Optional IgnoreNumerals As Boolean = True, Optional Delimiter As String = " ") As Long
    Rem 1 - upper case, 2 - lower case, 3 - proper case
    Dim i As Long
    Dim Words As Variant
    Dim Prefix As String
    Words = Split(within_String, Delimiter)
    For i = 0 To UBound(Words)
        If IgnoreNumerals And (LCase(Words(i)) = UCase(Words(i))) Then
            Prefix = Prefix & Delimiter & Words(i)
        ElseIf StrConv(Words(i), find_Case) = Words(i) Then
            FindCaseWord = Len(Prefix) + 1
            Exit For
        Else
            Prefix = Prefix & Delimiter & Words(i)
        End If
    Next i
End Function
