try this:

=LEFT(MID(MID(A1,SEARCH("-",A1)+2,LEN(A1)-SEARCH("-",A1)),SEARCH(" ",MID(A1,SEARCH("-",A1)+2,LEN(A1)-SEARCH("-",A1)))+3,LEN(MID(A1,SEARCH("-",A1)+2,LEN(A1)-SEARCH("-",A1)))-SEARCH(" ",MID(A1,SEARCH("-",A1)+2,LEN(A1)-SEARCH("-",A1)))),SEARCH(" ",MID(MID(A1,SEARCH("-",A1)+2,LEN(A1)-SEARCH("-",A1)),SEARCH(" ",MID(A1,SEARCH("-",A1)+2,LEN(A1)-SEARCH("-",A1)))+3,LEN(MID(A1,SEARCH("-",A1)+2,LEN(A1)-SEARCH("-",A1)))-SEARCH(" ",MID(A1,SEARCH("-",A1)+2,LEN(A1)-SEARCH("-",A1)))))-1)

Hi,

You can try this:

=TRIM(MID(SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(A1,"-","*",3),"-","!",4),FIND("*",SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(A1,"-","*",3),"-","!",4))+1,FIND("!",SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(A1,"-","*",3),"-","!",4))-FIND("*",SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(A1,"-","*",3),"-","!",4))-1))

For the particular data you are trying to retrieve, this formula should work...

=SUBSTITUTE(TRIM(MID(SUBSTITUTE(A1,"-",REPT(" ",200)),600,400))," ","-")

Hi,

just to find the beginning of the red string: (the examples in column A)

in B1: =mid(A1;find("- ",A1, find("- ", A1)+1)+2)

regards

A shorter way:-

=MID(A1,FIND("*",SUBSTITUTE(A1,"-","*",{3,5}))+1,12)

Another option:

=TRIM(MID(A1,FIND("¬",SUBSTITUTE(A1,"-","¬",3))+1,FIND("¬",SUBSTITUTE(A1,"-","¬",5))-FIND("¬",SUBSTITUTE(A1,"-","¬",3))-1))
