Hello -
I have an export file that I need to format the name cell in order to import it into another software. Is there a formula that can split the initials in a name? Names have all different lengths for first and last name. Current Cell: John MDoe Needs to be: John M Doe Thanks Last edited by velvick25 : August 11th 21 at 07:58 PM |

You can use Excel formulas to split the initials in a name and format it to the desired format. Here's how you can do it:
You will have a column with the first name, a column with the middle initial, and a column with the last name. You can then combine these columns into one cell to achieve the desired format of the name, with the first name, middle initial, and last name separated by spaces. Note that in these formulas, A2 refers to the cell containing the full name, and B2, C2, and D2 refer to the cells containing the first name, middle initial, and last name, respectively. Make sure to adjust the cell references in the formulas to match your specific spreadsheet.
