    Firstname, Lastname > Lastname Firstname

    Hello!
    I got 10.000 rows to convert from firstname, Lastname to "Lastname Firstname"
    (get rid of the ",")

    I have tried using the =LEFT() function and extracted the firstname but I can't find how to get the lastname properly.

    Can anyone assist please???

    Best regards
    /Henrik

    Maybe

    =PROPER(RIGHT(A1,LEN(A1)-FIND(",",A1)-1))&" "&PROPER(LEFT(A1,FIND(",",A1)-1))
