Default Breaking the data of column A into two columns First Name & Lastname.

Insert a few columns to the right of column A (to hold those parsed values).

Then select your range
data|text to columns
delimited (by space)
and finish up

If you really need a macro, you can record one when you do it manually.

Sorry I am not able to find the Split function in excel 2003.

More over i want a new column for every word after a space

Suppose in Cell A1 i have a name like:Sunita Kumari Iyar Rani

So I want Sunita in cell B1
So I want Kumari in cell C1
So I want Iyar in cell D1
So I want Rani in cell E1

This is the main Requirement. And I wanted to do the same with the
help of macros.

how this can be done.

Thanks
