Default Find last word in cell

aph wrote:

Hi,

How can I find the last word in a cell containing "Firstname
InitialLastname"? I have tried the Mid and Left functions with a for next
loopbut I think I need to work backwards to find the space.

Any suggestiongs please.


Use the Mid & Left functions to separate the firstname from the
remainder, then do it again on the remainder to separate the initial
from the lastname.
