Separating Names in a cell
I have a lengthy trade list of some mom & pop businesses. They have used two
columns for the first and last names. However, for the first name they included both mom & pop in that cell (i.e. Harold & Lucy). Is there any formula to pull those first names into two separate cells? -- Motaad |
