Default sorting columns with more than 2 text entries

DataText to ColumnsNext works well if all entries have a "single" first and
last name, eg, "Joe Smith". However, if there is a "Mary Joe Smith" listed,
how do I put only the last text entry into a new column? I am downloading
payment information from a PayPal account and want to sort by last name for
our lunches. Unfortunatley the "name" information (first, last, etc...) is
contained in a single cell.
