splitting up information in a cell
 
how can I split up one cell containing first and last name into individual
cells for each of them? I have a file that has names in one cell and I want
to seperate them so that I can sort them.

If they are separated by a delimiter, such as a comma, you can use the text
to column function. You should find this in Main Menu: Data: Text to
Column: Delimited
