One of our Administrative Assistants set up a worksheet with Name in one
cell. Unfortunately, she has some with first and last name only, and some
include a middle name.
I can parse the last name with the formula =MID(A1,FIND(" ",A1,1),30) for
those cells that contain only first and last name, but, if a cell contains a
middle name, this formula yields the middle and last name because it starts
from the left. I need only the last name.
I believe I need a formula that starts from the right, finds the first space
from the right, and then returns all characters to the left of that space.
I cant figure out how to do that.
Any suggestions will be appreciated.
