Hi Debs
Assuming the names are in column A with blank columns to the right Mark column ADataText to columnsDelimitedDelimiterCommaFinish. You now have lastname in column A and firstname in column B. Enter in cell C1 @Dickinson-Dees.com then in D1 enter =B1&"."&A1&$C$1 Copy down column D as far as required. Copy column DPaste SpecialValues to "fix" the data. -- Regards Roger Govier "Debs" wrote in message ...

Hi again Debbie,
My sincerest apologies. Try this:- =TRIM(MID(A1,FIND(",",A1)+1,255))&"."&LEFT(A1,FIND " The above is actually one line but it will not fit in properly. Regards, OssieMac "Debs" wrote: Hi thanks for the info! It seems to work but does not add in the surname the results show as: and need to display as: Any ideas?
