Hello,
I have been sent an excel spreadsheet which has names in the format,
last name, first name
I know how to remove the commas en mass, but do not know of a way to
separate the first and last names easily. Once the commas are out, I
cut the first name out and paste it into an adjacent column. Does
anyone know of a way to separate the names into two columns, as I
need to have the first and last names as separate data fields.
Thanks for any better ideas, as the cut&paste method is time consuming.
Phyllis
