Solution

The "text to columns" feature is most appropriate for the situation where you are splitting a column containing "<firstname> <surname>" into two columns. This feature is used when you want to separate the contents of one Excel cell into separate columns. In this case, you would use it to separate a full name into a first name column and a surname column.
