Are those the only two symbols you want to remove? What about a period, a comma, a hyphen, etc.?

Yes dear 

What is script if I need to remove comma and period 

Many thanks in advance

Instead of doing it one character at a time, you can use this code to remove everything that's not a letter:

event.value=event.value.replace(/[^a-z]/ig," ");

However, keep in mind there might be some characters you want to keep, such as an apostrophe (eg. "O'Donnell"), a hyphen (eg. "Grier-Smith"), or a period (eg. "John H. Smith"). Names can have a lot of variance...

Why not remove it in word before copy?
