you could use the listfirst and listlast functions. assuming that your
names are alwas Last, First:
<CFSET thename = "Smith, John">
<CFOUTPUT>
#listlast(thename)# #listfirst(thename)#
</CFOUTPUT>
make sense?

Subject: Reveral of a field
Hi,
I have a field with Smith, John as the contents.
I want to display John Smith...
I'm think I get the total length(a), then the charlength of the comma(b).
Take contents b + 1 and subtract that from a equals (c)
Then display the difference of c to a (d)
and then output c after d to the total of the field....
Any other ideas?
