    how do i sort by second word in a cell?

    I have a spreadsheet with first and last names in one cell. I would like to
    sort by last names. Is there any way to sort by the second word in a cell or
    a quick way to divide the cell by first and last names, without cut and paste?

    Save your data first, and make sure there is a blank column (or two) to the
    right of the column with your data in it........then Highlight the column of
    names..........then Data > Text to columns > delimited > next > check
    "space" for a delimiter > next > finish......
