Add in an IF statement and it works like a charm all in one column.

Thanks

I don't know if it is appropriate to bogart onto someone else's post but is
it possible to do this in reverse. That is take first and last name or First
name, spouse first name and Last name information from separate columns and
combine it into one column ie John & Jane Smith or John Smith

I have a column of names (first & last name). Is it possible to separate
them into two columns - 1 column for first name, next column for last
name?

Thanx...JF
