I have a string such as the following two examples and want a formula to 
grab the last two words. 
 
The following formula works for me but I'm looking for other ways to do the 
same.
 =MID(A1,FIND("-Date",A1)+6,LEN(A1))
 
Any help would be appreciated
 
Cell A1 contains:
Reporting Period: Month-To-Date November 2012
Reporting Period: Month-To-Date April 2012
 
Formula in cell B1 should produce:
November 2012
April 2012
 
Thank you!
