Are the names seperated by a space? or by a comma?

Data...text to columns....delimited... and then choose what seprates the
names (space, or comma or whatever)
this should split them up for you.

I have a spreadsheet which contains one column of names, (last name,
first name). I would like to split this into two columns so that I will
have the last name in one column and the first name in another so that I
can use either the first or last name in a mail merge.

Is there way to do this?

Thanks--
