Can anyone help me to remove Salutation and name to two different
fields.
I have a list of names like this. Mr Ravindran, Mrs Ravindran Ms
Ravindran, Miss Ravindran etc. I want to have the Salutation in one
cell and the name in the other.

Thanks in advance.

M. Ravindran

Remainder: =MID(A1,FIND(" ",A1)+1,1024)

Assuming your list in column A

In B1 put:

=LEFT(A1,FIND(" ",A1,1))

In C1 put:

=MID(A1,FIND(" ",A1,1),99)

copy both down as far as you have data in Column A.
