Excel 2007 Formula to Pull Text Before A Certain Character

Hello,

Can someone provide a formula that will pull all the text in a cell that appears before the first appearance of {?  For example, if the cell contains the following: Hello World {123} the formula would return:  Hello World.  If there is no { in the text string then it would just return the full text in the cell.

Thanks
