Is the data just a text file or does it have separates?

Your question lacks details about the data format.

what’s the source format for the last ans first names? is every full name in a single string field?

The names are in a print file.  I have attached a sample print file.  
The conversion program has to be used by ordinary users.  They don’t know anything about programming.
I considered importing all the names into Excel but this company does not use Windows products.  Their office software is produced by LibreOffice.  Libreoffice does not have the convenient programming interface as Excel does.

If they were using Windows products I would write a vbscript to import the names into Excel and then the names could be in separate cells and I could just interrogate the cells to see if there is relevant data.  So if the names were put into cells beginning with column A, then if column A, B , C and D had data in them then I’d know I am dealing a name like
  Hastings Commert Sara Jones  
where the last name is Hastings Commert and the first name is Sara.

But I don’t have the luxury of using Excel.  
My thought was to read each character in the name field, determine when a space occurred and put the information into an array.  Then, if one array row had 4 elements in it then I’d know  this array row contained a complex name like the one above.

What other ideas can you think of to determine how to recognize a last and first name in the file I have uploaded?
Namefile.txt

I assume you want to extract and process the "Customer NAME" column of the report?

You won't find any turnkey solution by searching, because the code needs to be customized for that particular report format. To properly process, you need to filter for the interesting lines or (better) concat two successive lines to unwind the report's line wraps.

My suggestion is to use either VBScript or PowerShell (preferred) - both are part of the OS, and there is no need to update or install anything.

Mr.Tsioumpris:   Thank you for your help.  Great idea.

Based on that data sample, the vbscript code isn't going to work..
Now... since the data sample seems to have fixed size fields, then this should work.. BUT.. (huge caveat).. they *must* be fixed size fields, or this will just mangle what you have.. And if they do end up having variable size fields, then segmenting them will be difficult..

$filepath = 'c:\temp\sample.txt'
$OutputFile = 'c:\temp\Updated_Sample.txt'

$OutputData = [System.Collections.ArrayList]::new()

$reader = [System.IO.File]::OpenText($filepath)

while($null -ne ($line = $reader.ReadLine())) {
    if ($line -match '^\s?(\d{6}|\d{5}).*')
    {
        #Data dataline
        $Segment1 = $line.SubString(0,34)
        $Segment2 = $line.SubString(35,16).Trim() #LastName 
        $Segment3 = $line.SubString(51,14).Trim() #First Name
        $Segment4 = $line.SubString(65,1)  #Middle Initial or space
        $Segment5 = $line.SubString(66)

        $NewSegment3 = $Segment3.PadRight(14,' ')
        $NewMiddleSegment = $NewSegment3, $Segment2 -join ''
        $NewMiddleSegment = $NewMiddleSegment.PadRight(31,' ')
        
        $WriteLine = $Segment1, $NewMiddleSegment, $Segment4, $Segment5 -join ''
    }
    else
    {
        $WriteLine = $line
    }
    [void]$OutputData.Add($WriteLine)
}
Set-Content -Path $OutputFile -Value ($OutputData -join "`r`n")

Using your sample data, here is what got output from it:

Just remember.. this is based on fixed size fields, and swapping the first/middle and lastname sections.. If that doesn't meet your requirements, then it'll need to be adjusted.  I'm sure this could be done with vbscript, but that will take some work.
