Extracting elements from a data string

2000-03-29 Thread Robert Ward
Hi all, We have a data field called #name# Trouble is it contains all elements of the name, ie: First_Name Initials Last_Name (Note: only about 30% have middle initials) We would like to extract - the first word as their first name, - the last word as their last_name - and anything in between
