Split Combined Name
Cell A contains a name in the format 'first initial last'.
I want to create cells from this: 'first' 'initial' and 'last'. Are there formulas for the 3 cells that will accomplish this? Thanks for the help.

Thanks for the help. Try: Cell A1 contains a name - John Smith. The formula for extracting the first name is =LEFT(A1,FIND(" ",A1)). The formula for extracting the last name is =MID(A1,FIND(" ",A1)+1,LEN(A1)).
