    The list above shows names with the A A as an extention. This seems to
    create my problem. If I try to simply delete these "A A" the names can not
    be properly spaced. This probably results in the hidden spaces you speak of.
    Is there any method to remove the extension and allow for proper spacing.
    After all your help it appears to boil down to this.

    Re: creating a formul

    I can't tell what your data contains from just looking at it in your post.

    If you don't wish to send me a copy, there's really nothing more I can
    suggest to you, besides perhaps the outside chance that "Text To Columns"
    might accomplish something.

    Re: creating a formul

    I thought what I sent would help one last thought. I've tried to use the
    trim and/or clean funtion to remove what appears to be a hidden character and
    hidden space. The character is removed the spaces of the name is correct but
    when I reverse the names (from first and last) to (last and first)using a
    workable formula the spacing reverts tothe incorrect multiple spacing. It's
    mind boggling
