    How to subtract some text from a text

    Suppose the text is 1D_CK_SPP_BD_96
    and I want to delete _SPP from the above text so that it is to be view as 1D_CK_BD_96.

    Is it possible through an excel formula ? Suggest,if possible.

    Re: Required an excel formula

    Most people here want an Excel formula! Please take a moment to re-read forum rule #1 and then amend your thread title to something that better explains your problem. Changing your thread title is not optional, which means you must change it. Thanks!

    • Use concise, accurate thread titles.
    • Your post title should describe your problem, not your anticipated solution.
    • Use terms appropriate to a Google search - poor thread titles, like Please Help, Urgent, Need Help, Formula Problem, Code Problem, and Need Advice tell us nothing.
    • Responding to a request to change your thread title by doing so is mandatory.

    To change a title go to your first post, click EDIT then Go Advanced and change your title.

    No help to be offered, please, until the OP complies with this request.

    Also, you have posted in the VBA section - do you want a formula or code?

    Thanks for changing the title.

    Suppose that text is in cell A1, then you can put this formula in B1:

    =SUBSTITUTE(A1,"_SPP","")

    Hope this helps.
