Something I've done a lot, but never really took the time to write all the
steps (because it's usually easy enough) is parsing out a Fullname: Doe, Mary Anne E. into 3 columns. LastName, FirstName, MI I started to make a little cheat sheet so that I could just blindly paste the formulas into whatever worksheet I need to do this to, when it occurred to me: Has anyone already done this? (Created a perfect algorithm to catch every scenario) Certainly someone has! I'm stuck with the example above: As you can see Mary Anne is her first name and E is her middle initial which poses some problems for the average name Doe, John E Thanks! |
