Hi,


I have a coloumn of names and these names are spellet like

MarkMR, SteveMR etc.

However I also have there names without the MR at the end ( Mark, Steve etc). What formula can I use to look at the last two characters and if 'MR' then remove MR and give me the name else simply return the value as is.


Thanks Rana

Assuming your data is in Column A

=IF(RIGHT(A1,2)="MR",LEFT(A1,LEN(A1)-2),A1)

Copy down

Adjust column Accordingly
