Swap last and first at the comma (change last, first to first last)

This command moves anything before the comma to the end of the field, after what originally appears after the comma. This example uses a comma and the field named First. With some field name changing, you can use this command on any field. You can change the comma to a hyphen or pipe if that's the character that you want to trigger the swap. Any field, any character.

*Example: Cowher, Bill & Kaye changes to Bill & Kaye Cowher
*Example: Roethlisberger, Ben changes to Ben Roethlisberger
*Example: Gordon III, Melvin changes to Melvin Gordon III

This command requires the name to appear in the field named First

Replace first with ALLT(ltrim(substr(first,at(",",alltrim(first))+1)))+" "+left(first,at(",",alltrim(first))-1) for occur(",",alltrim(first))>0

Would you please pass along to the rest of the AccuZIP team how refreshing it is to have great support? I was an Accuzip customer for several years and left almost 2 years ago thinking the grass was greener on the Bulk Mailer side of the fence. BOY WAS I WRONG! It was one of the worse decisions I made in a long time and actually switched back before my subscription was up with them, paying for an entire year of their software without using it. Eric welcomed me back, and your team got us up and running in no time. The tech support with BCC which gobbled up Bulk Mailer was horrid at best. Very sterile and no personalities or willingness to help at all when you actually were able to talk with someone.
