Extracting Data

I have a file which can contain one name such as John Smith or two names such as John Smith & Betty Brown.

When there are two names they are separated by an "&".

I would like to extract name 1 into two fields Contact1Name and Contact1Surname, and if a second name exists extract it into Contact2Name and Contact2Surname.

Any assistance would be appreciated.

These will work for the example given. However, there can't be any middle names or initials in the contacts names.

LeftWords ( FieldToBeParsed ; 1 )

MiddleWords ( FieldToBeParsed ; 2 ; 1 )

MiddleWords ( FieldToBeParsed ; 3 ; 1 )

MiddleWords ( FieldToBeParsed ; 4 ; 1 )
