I have hundreds of names in multiple columns, Ex: Doe,
John A. Is there a way ro re-arrange the names to John A.
Doe?

Thanks
 
Try the following =CONCATENATE(G2&" "& F2)
Assuming that there is no coma after Doe.
With Doe in F2 and John A. in G2

Danny,

Give this formula a try...

=RIGHT(A1,LEN(A1) - SEARCH(" ",A1)) & " " & LEFT(A1,SEARCH(",",A1)-1)

The results will probably depend on whether or not all of your entries are like
the sample you provided. It worked for "Doe, John A." and "Doe, Jane"
