Try this macro
Sub Pierre()
Dim Rng As Range, Data As Range, iLeft As Integer
Set Data = Selection
For Each Rng In Data
iLeft = InStr(1, Rng, "(") + 1
If iLeft > 1 Then
Rng.Offset(0, 1) = Mid(Rng, iLeft, InStr(1, Rng, ")") - iLeft)
Rng.Offset(0, 0) = Left(Rng, InStr(1, Rng, ",") - 1)
End If
Next
End Sub

I have some data that is imported into Excel. It's a long string of
text, in one cell, that I have to split in 2 cells and get rid of
unwanted data.
I've attached a file, I need to manipulate the data in ROW 3 to look
like the data in ROW 5. Normally i do this on the same row. I will
copy what is found in the brackets to the cell in column B and then I
remove everything after the comma, so I'm left with the username in
Column A and the full name in Column B.
The format is always the same for the data that is imported. I do
have over 100 rows in certain cases and I almost get hypnotize to do
the same steps over and over.
Can anyone help me to setup a mcro that would take care of my problem.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks!
