Default Spliting Names

Select the range/column needs to be changed. From menu DataText to Columns
will populate the 'Convert Text to Columns Wizard'. By default the selection
is 'Delimited'. Keep the selection and hit 'Next'.

From the Step2 of the Wizard from the options select Comma and hit Next.

Hit Finish

Hello,

I have a sheet that in Column A names come in "X, Y" X as LastName and Y as
FirstName. Is there a sample that I could split this column into to keeping
LastName in Column A and after removing "," put the firstName in Column B?
