AndyPandy,
Glad to help, and not surprised that once again barry wins the formula derby :)
One of the functions I used, IFERROR, debuted in Excel 2007, so yes, in Excel 2003 and earlier you will get a #NAME error if you use it.

Thomas, nice but leaves #value when string too short.
Matt, #Name?, perhaps my Excel 2003 doesn't support your solution?
Barry, Nice short and sweet and no error. Still trying to figure out how it does this.
Thanks guys!
