I was right, there was a simple solution. (I have GOT to learn 'awk')
 
Thanks to Jeft Lightner, Vince Taylor, and Marc Ahrendt
 
solution:
 
awk -F, '{print $1" ,"$2" "$3} filename
 
 
Thanks guys

There is probably a simple solution to this but I can't find it.
 
I have a file in the format of:
 
Lastname,Firstname,MI
or
Lastname,Firstname,
 
 I want to put a space between the first comma and the Firstname and change the second comma to a space.
 
Any ideas?
 
Thanks
