I have two different delimiters ("[]" and "()") that I'm trying to replace with a space. They start at the beginning of the cell. Below includes an example with the solution ("desired output" column) I'm trying to get to with an excel formula:

DataDesired Output (looking for a formula to get these details)
[Name] Details (which can include a long string of text)
Details (which can include a long string of text)
(Name) Details (which can include a long string of text)
Details (which can include a long string of text)
 

Excel Facts

What do {} around a formula in the formula bar mean?
{Formula} means the formula was entered using Ctrl+Shift+Enter signifying an old-style array formula.
What version of Excel are you using?

I suggest that you update your Account details (or click your user name at the top right of the forum) so helpers always know what Excel version(s) & platform(s) you are using as the best solution often varies by version. (Don’t forget to scroll down & ‘Save’)
