So today I was given a excel spreadsheet with one column of data

Column A has the the following info in descending rows

Name
Street Address
City, State, Zip Code
Phone #


Then the next row down starts over the process with the next name, etc.



So I have a 16,000 row spreadsheet that looks like this
Joe Smith
123 Road
New York, NY 11111
(123) 456-7890
Bob Johnson
999 Street
Boring, OR 99999
(751) 555-1212
Janet Customer
666 Heaven Road
Las Vegas, NV 88765
(444) 555-6666

<tbody>
</tbody>

I'm sure there has to be a way to make a formula to convert each address to multiple columns moving left to right

or even better would be to break up the City, State an d Zip into their own columns.

As I said, the list given to me is 16,000 rows of data, If I do this by hand it will take me a week. Any suggestions?

You can teach Excel a new custom list. Type the list in cells, File, Options, Advanced, Edit Custom Lists, Import, OK
Well I finally found a macro in my ASAP Utilities (paid for) add on. It took care of the first part, and then I did some Text To Columns work for the rest.

Thanks ASAP Utilities!
