Default Text to Columns

I have a list of names that were split across 3 columns using the text to
columns feature. Does anyone know of an EASY way to tell Excel to move a
name into the third position if it is blank?

Example:
A B C
1 LastName MiddleInitial FirstName
2 Smith J Daniel
3 Taylor David
4 Pearson Tony

I have thousands of records and would like to find a way to quickly move
contents from the 2nd column to the 3rd IF that 3rd column is blank.

Idea's anyone?
Thanks!
