Looking for the correct combination of Left, Right, Mid, or Substitute function to separate values into desired column. Desired outcome in B2:B29, C2:C29, D2:D29, G2:G29, H2:H29, I2:I27, M2:M27, P2:P27, and Q2:Q27. See sample file.
Thanks

Presumably columns B:D are meant to break out full names in column A. Are there really commas between given names and surname in column A? That'd be extremely unusual.
For that matter, F8 contains Sablan, Yankee Jr., but G2 shows the last name as Sablan and H2 shows the first name as Yankee Jr.. Given what Jr. usually means in English, why are you showing Jr. in H2 rather than G2?
In other words, your examples don't make sense. It looks like you just threw something together and expect the rest of us to read your mind to ascertain your intentions.
Try this. Pl see file with formulas.

Sorry for off-topic interjection:
Although there is no official rule regarding this behaviour, we request that wherever possible both the question AND the answer be provided in substantive detail here within the thread. An attached workbook is an excellent aid for posing a question and offering a solution, but solely doing that with no in thread explanation makes it difficult for researchers to understand or consider the Q & A of this thread without downloading what may be a pointless doc to them, if they can do that at all. Doing that also hides the content from search engines so others may never benefit from this.
I'm sure you understand.
