FIRST FAMILY NAME

I'm working on an excel spreadsheet.  I have a header marked "STUDENT NAME" in column B.  I accidentally listed the names of students with the first name and last name instead of last NAME, first NAME.  Is it possible to reverse the order to read the name, then first name with out from anywhere from scratch?  Urgent need this info.
Thank you

    E-mail address is removed from the privacy *.

    My direct mail is sorted in alphabetical order by family name,

    It is not clear what you mean by this statement.

    • There is an option in the contacts window in kind (names) of > name -is that what you mean?
    • Or that, when you open / switch to the contacts window, you see a list sorted by last name?
    • Or that when you click on to... or start typing in the to... box in a message composition window, you see a list ('contact selector') sorted by family name?

    Only in contact with an e-mail address will appear in the "Chooser". The list includes names in alphabetical order. For contacts with a first name and a registered name , the list will be sorted based on the preference granted to sort by in the Contacts window. Contacts with multiple email addresses will appear once for each address with the address in brackets after the name.

    Name is a special value built by WLMail contact data fields. It will consist of the first match found during the analysis of the data fields in the following order:

    1. Nickname
    2. First name + last name (in the order specified to sort by in the Contacts window)
    3. First name or last name
    4. Company
    5. E-mail address
    As you start typing in of... box, WLMail will present a list of matching entries in your contacts list. You can start typing username, first name, first name, company, e-mail address to a contact or any significant word in the Notes field for this contact. So, if you type bil, for example, the list that appears will include
    • any person whose nickname starts with Bil, e.g. Billyboy
    • any person whose first name begins with Bil, e.g. of Bilbo Baggins
    • anyone whose first name begins with Bil, for example Jim Bilko
    • everyone whose company name starts with Bil, e.g. Billingsgate Market
    • everyone with an address of e-mail from bil bil or just after a period or the ' @' symbol, for example "the bilbo at hotmail dot com" or "jim to billingsgate dot com" or "jim.bilko at hotmail dot com.
    • all categories whose name contains a word starting with bil

    If this does not solve your problem, please post your question in the forum dedicated to contacts in Windows Live Mail.

  • How to organize my "windows contacts" and alphabetize by family name?

    I use Vista.  "Windows contacts", I had my contact names in alphabetical order by family name.  When I downloaded Explorer 8, my contacts are now in alphabetical order by "name".  How can I change to the listed contacts and alphabetically by "last name" again?

    Hi Theodore,

    You can try the following steps and check.

    Right-click on the column header bar and select 'more' and check the option ' name'. The column is displayed. You can drag it where you want and sort upwards or downwards by clicking on the header.

    Alternatively, you can try the following steps.

    a. right click on the Contacts folder.

    b. change the display «Détails»

    c. right-click on the 'name' column header, click on "First name", then click on 'Last Name'

    d. click the title "Last Name" to sort by there.

  • Make the results appear in alphabetical order by family name

    We have a ColdFusion search on our website pulling the top member info (name, e-mail, address, etc.) to a Microsoft Access database. The search works very well and there is a button to "List all members" that lists all members at the same time if someone does not want to search. The problem is that I suck at programming and I programmed it long ago and completely forget everything that I learned once. So I'll try to understand what code to add in making the list of all results page members appear in alphabetical order by name of family member. Now it shows automatically results in order by registering Number(which is the first field listed in the database). Someone knows what I add to make the results shows in alphabetical order by family name?

    Thank you.

    Thank you all for your help! I really appreciate it.

    To sort by last name:
    View > Show name as: ' last, first

    View > sort by > name and order growing

    In your case, affect the 'Show name for what is' first of all, the last

    No, it is accessible to the public through the view of APEX APEX_WORKSPACE_APEX_USERS. The data in the view are visible to one workspace schemas.

    Note however that for the serious long term production use Oracle (and me) recommends creating a sign personalized with user data in your own tables.

    REGEXP_SUBSTR, which is easy:

    SELECT  tno
    ,     REGEXP_SUBSTR (tname, '[^, ]+', 1, 1)     AS first_name
    ,     REGEXP_SUBSTR (tname, '[^, ]+', 1, 2)     AS middle_name

  • Impossible to analyze the first user name of variable LMS

    Hi all

    I'm looking to use the LMS username as a variable in my class.

    I used the following link to get the value of the variable: display name of your LMS using Adobe Captivate to the 6.x - CaptivateDev.com student

    LMS appears under the name form, first of all.

  • My family name is not the same thing as my husband, but my name appears on the emails under his name. How to change that?

    My name is different from my husband: for example, my name is Mary Smith and my husband is John Doe. When I send an email, the message watch is from may Doe. How can I show that it is Mary Smith? If I send a message to myself, I've send it to Mary Smith, but it is the same thing.

    This is why it is so difficult to solve a problem in the Internet especially in any detail.

    When you look at the main window you see the pane of folders on the left side of the window with your e-mail accounts listed?
    If this is not the case, press the alt key to make the call of menu bar, then select View-presentation-folder pane.

    Now follow the original instructions.

    All this assumes that you and your husband have separate accounts. If you share the same account, then forget. There is only one name associated with an e-mail account. Then the answer is get a second account in your name.
