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'? |

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 "Mike F" wrote in message ... I have a cell with the name Doe Jane.
