Hi all,

I need to change position of Firstname and Lastname.

Eg: Bill Smith becomes SmithB
Helen Clinton becomes ClintonH

Either VBA code or Function to do the job would be good.

Thanks in advanve.

Cheers Bogia

What is the shortcut key for Format Selection?
Ctrl+1 (the number one) will open the Format dialog for whatever is selected.
Hello,

Try something like the following:

Code:
=MID(A1,FIND(" ",A1)+1,LEN(A1))&LEFT(A1,1)
And please post back when you realize that you've drastically over simplified the potential array of names you need to parse. :wink: :-P :lol:
