Splitting data in cells
I'd like to split the content of a cell to an adjacent cell. For instance in
column B there is a list of first name and last name; all found within a cell. I'd like to split the content so that the first name remains in column B and the last name is pasted onto column C. Thanks, |

Splitting data in cells
if first name and second name is separated with a space then type in column B:
=left(A1, find(" ", A1, 1)) and type in column C: =right(A1, len(A1)-find(" ", A1, 1)).
