Inverse (change) String position

Hakimipous

Hello,

 

Is it possible to inverse  (or change) string position from a field?

 

for example from "Jason Tod"

 

to "Tod Jason"

 

should also work with composed names (with 3 words or more)

 

Thanks!

Try the attached.

 

- Add a record ID

- Split the text on Space to rows

- Add a word ID using a MultiRow formula

- Sort by RecordID (Asc), WordID (desc)

- Summarise grouping by RecordID and concatenating the words
