Hi can anyone advise how I would go about splitting data in a cell.

EG I have a column that has first and last name in it separated with a
space.

IE

Bob Smith

How would I automatically look at each cell in the row and after the
end of the first name, cut the second name into its own row.

I should then have:

Bob in one cell and in the adjacent cell Smith.

Thanks in advance,

Cheers,

Aaron.


Use the menu: Data - Text to Columns ... then follow the wizard. If you
specify 'space' as your delimiter, Excel will do what you requested.
