Frank,
You can use Split function to break the string into pieces seperated
by space.
So, a string with Rone Aprilia Gultom will return an array with length
3
e.g. data = Split("Rona Aprilia Gultom", " ")
data(0) - will return Rona
data(1) - will return Aprilia
data(2) - will return Gultom
The length of array will change depending upon the spaces inside the
name.
I am assuming, things are seperated by space.

Hello,
I want to finetuning my chruch records membership
With 500 members some names are 2 or 3 pieces words and now I want to put
them into separate names since I want to build a Access database instead of
excell
this is example of my problem
In excel iin one Cell
Rona Aprilia Gultom, I want to separate it into 3 Cell
Fuirst Name: Rona
Middle Name: Aprilia
Last Name: Gultom
My problem some is 2 pieces and some are 3 and the length of the name is
variable so I can not use Mid function in this matter.
What is certain is there is alwasy "space" between the words of the name
Can anyone help me how to do splitting this names?
Thanks in advance,
Frank
