Default Remove Middle Initial

Hey Anyone,

I have a range that contails several names such as:

Smith, John D
Dean, James L & Mouse, Mickey M
Trump, Donald
Wayne, John P
Wayne, Bruce

I am trying to remove all the middle initials, which as you can see,
some cells contain a name with no middle initials, and some cell
contain 2 names each with an initial. I'm wondering what the code
would look like to search each cell in the range for a single
character (ie. the middle initial), ignoring "&", and remove the
initial.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thank You,
Kyle
