There are a couple ways to do this.
- In the cell to the right of the cell you want to split, you can use the =left() formula to get part of the cell.
- You can use Data => Text To Columns to split the cell by a delimiter (ie, split "Ventura, Calif." => "Ventura" and " Calif." if you split by a comma)
