I currently have a column that contains both First and Last Names. Some first names have multipal names and some surnames have multipal names. Below is some sample data:
Jean Michael BURGES
Bill HARRIS
Willow VAN GRATH
Lisa jane VAN DE BERG

I need a way to get a column that contains the First Name (not ALL CAPS) and a column for the Surname (which is identifyed by the ALL CAPS)

I have tried making some functions based on what I have read in previous threads without any luck. I have also found them hard to debug. Any help is greatly appreciated.

What does custom number format of ;;; mean?
Three semi-colons will hide the value in the cell. Although most people use white font instead.
Thanks Benjaminmin, If I get stuck I will play with this in a function. Been finding the functions very hard to debug so will hold out for now and hope that someone can give me some code I can cut and paste.
Fingers crossed.
