Default Invert Cell contents

Hi Mike,

=MID(A1,FIND(" ",A1)+1,10)&" "&LEFT(A1,FIND(" ",A1))

Will work for simple names per your example. Goes nuts with names like Du
Pont James or St James Susan.

(Change the 10 to a larger number if first name exceeds 10 characters)

HTH
Regards,
Howard

I have a cell with the name Doe Jane.
Is there a way I can invert the information in the cell to read 'Jane
Doe'?
