The manage authors dialog does not support splitting a single author name into two authors. Instead, you enter multiple authors for a book in the book, either directly on the spreadsheet or while editing metadata. As said above, separate the authors using &, such as in

I may not be the brightest spark but i can't think why you imagine I would want to insert an & sign into a single author. It may be that you mean if multiple authors are listed with a comma separating them then Calibre identifies them as a single author and so you need first to insert the & sign at book metadata level. If that is what you meant then you must be correct because you can't replace the comma with an & in "author" column under "manage author" as I stated in my original post.
