When exporting lists of constituentis in RE NXT, place First Name and Last Name in 2 separate columns in Excel

When I make lists in RE NXT, I often export them to excel. When I do this, the name field imports as one cell into the excel document. I usually end up using the "LEFT" or "RIGHT" functions in excel to split the name into first and last or I just save my list as a static quiery in database view and export the list from there. Being able to directly export lists from NXT and have the Name split in two columns of first and last would save this hassle.

    Does anyone know if there are plans to correct this? 

    Hard to believe this was not thought of as an essential option when it was created.

    I think the Addressee/Salutation should also be options- then we could export for a mailing list.

    All components of the name should be in separate columns - Title 1 and 2, First, Middle, Last, Suffix 1 and 2

    I do same. Create static query and then export in database so I can include info I need - separate columns, spouse, spouse email/email etc.  Good idea!
