Generate First and Last Name from a String field when there is delimiter/ no delimiter

EN6924

Hello All,

 

I'm learning Regex.

Trying to generate First and Last Name from a String field.

Done in 4 ways. But wanted to know if I can do this more quickly (without creating 2 formulas in a single formula tool).

 

Thanks.

Hi @EN6924 

 

You can use a single regex for this. Makes sure case insensitive is turned off.
