Last-Name, First-Name Confusion

Because ServiceBuilder detauls to display last name, first name, but requires entering names first name, last name, it can get confusing.

I am thinking of a solution whereby if a comma is typed during entry, either it is ignored, or a warning comes up telling people to enter names in the regular format.

Or better yet-- if a comma is detected, ServiceBuilder could sense that the last name is entered first, and switch the fields around automatically.

This has been fixed the following way:

1. If you type last name, first name in a dropdown box (add new person), then the script checks first to see if there is a comma.
2. If a comma has been typed in the name (last name, first name), it decides the last name is first.
3. If no comma has been typed, it decides the first name is first!

Simple, and it works.
