i just tried your search and replace code and it does nothing.

I suggested two search & replace operations, the one going from
firstname lastname to
lastname, firstname and the other vice versa. Which one did you try?

i can totally see the search and replace function as an extremely powerful tool, but i'm kinda scared to use it. back up time!!! also i'm hoping that there's a way to retain series name and number in the {Title} field without having to search and replace each and everytime i input a series.

I don't see a way to do that. And as for being scared: Go read the tutorial that was linked. If you understand regular epxressions, there's no reason to be afraid of the feature. (Still, a backup would be a Good Thing.)
