Default Separate Middle Initial From First Name

Hi All:

I have a list of names stored in MS Excel. Last name is in first column but
first name and middle initial are in second column. The file looks like:

Last name First Name
West Joe
Hellygard David J.
Huang Nancy H.

Now I want to separate first name and middle initial and move middle initial
to third column. The problem is that the length of first name is not same.
Definitely I cannot use Text to Column. Any help or suggestions are very
appreciated.


Charles
