How do you alphabetize street addresses within a column?
How do you alphabetize street addresses within a column? When I sort
according to address, it sorts according to the number (not the street name). It is more important to group the street names than the street numbers. HELP! |

How do you alphabetize street addresses within a column?
Hi,
An easy way is to create two new helper columns, one containing the number, the other containing the street name. Assuming the numbers and names are in column A,then put =--LEFT(A1,FIND(" ",A1,1)) in B1 and drag down. Put =RIGHT(A1,LEN(A1)-FIND(" ",A1,1)) in C1 and drag down Then sort on column C, making sure you expand the range to include column A and B in the range.

How do you alphabetize street addresses within a column?
I have the same issue, except the addresses and the street names are
referenced from another sheet using the offset command. How do I separate the numbers from the street names?

In the formulae below, replace A1 by your existing OFFSET formula.
