I need to copy half of the info in a cell...

I am trying to make a song book after importing data into Excel. The title
of the song and the artist are in the same cell, seperated by a double space.
Is there a formula that can copy the info after the double space? I can
replace the double space with a special character if there is a formula that
can read for it.

Hi
The first Characters:
=LEFT(A1,SEARCH(" ",A1,1)-1)
The Second Characters:
=MID(A1,SEARCH(" ",A1,1)+2,100)

Formula search always looks for double space, but if there is non, the
formula will return value error.

Eva, thank you so much for your help! The first formula worked, I was able
to get the artist seperate in a different column, but the 2nd formula came
back as #VALUE!.
