Solution

The correct answer is "Text to Columns". Here are the steps to parse the "Full Name" field into "Last Name" and "First Name" fields:

  1. Select the column that contains the full name.
  2. Go to the "Data" tab in the Excel ribbon.
  3. Click on "Text to Columns". A wizard will open.
  4. In the wizard, choose "Delimited" and then click "Next".
  5. In the next step, check the "Comma" box, as the names are separated by a comma. Then click "Next".
  6. In the next step, you can specify the format for the new columns. If you don't need any specific format, just click "Finish".

Now, the "Full Name" field is split into two columns, "Last Name" and "First Name".
