Thumbs up Answer: Add comma in last name first name

Sure, I can help you with that! You can use the
Formula:
CONCATENATE 
function in Excel to add a comma between the last name and first name. Here are the steps:
  1. Select the cell where you have the last name and first name together.
  2. In the formula bar, type
    Formula:
    =CONCATENATE(A1,", ",B1
    where A1 is the cell with the last name and B1 is the cell with the first name.
  3. Press Enter and you will see the last name and first name separated by a comma in the same cell.

Alternatively, you can use the ampersand (&) symbol instead of the
Formula:
CONCATENATE 
function. Here's how:
  1. Select the cell where you have the last name and first name together.
  2. In the formula bar, type
    Formula:
    =A1&", "&B1 
    where A1 is the cell with the last name and B1 is the cell with the first name.
  3. Press Enter and you will see the last name and first name separated by a comma in the same cell.
