Extract value from a field

Hello folks

I have a search in which I table.  Here is a snippet of the results

 

ObjectDN _time

cn=Jane Fonda,OU=Blue,OU=Pad,OU=Circle Team,DC=circle,DC=net2021-04-22 23:48:36CN=Matt Cruz,OU=Blue,OU=Pad2,OU=Circle Team,DC=circle,DC=net2021-04-22 01:07:43

 

If I want to extract the names contained in the CN to output to a column on it's own how would I do that?

I don't know why the question cut off.  My question is, if I wanted just the CN portion of the results to display in a separate column called "NAMES", how can I do that?

ITWhisperer, thank you so much.

 

In some cases the CN is lower case so it doesn't match for those entries.  Is there a way to make this case insensitive?
