Default Extracting First Name from cell with first name and last name

FirstName = Split(Range("B10").Value)(0)

I ran your vba text, but it is only bringing in the first letter
of the first word - "U". Am I missing something?


That is not possible... unless there was a space between the "U" and the "n"
or unless you Dim'med the FirstName variable like this...

Dim FirstName As String * 1

which I think would be highly unlikely. Show us the code you are using (not
just my one-liner, but the code procedure you have it in).

You are right there is a space. For instance, if the name was United
States, there would be a space in between the name. I ran your vba
