How to use eval or other method in calculated fields to extract values into a new field?

Hi,

I am thinking of using the Calculated Fields option to extract one field.
I have following values in a field name "YOURFIELD"
Test_X
TestA_Y
TestBC_Z_all
I want to extract the characters before "_" in a new field "MYFIELD". The result will be:
Test
TestA
TestBC

Can please help me to extract this result in calculated fields using an EVAL function or any other method?

Thanks for the reply Ayn. Can we use RegEx in Calculated fields?
