...
it's a spreadsheet of names and addresses
the addresses column has both the street number and address.
like 1233 LAKE ST

What I would like to do, is sort them on the street name AND THEN the
number so I would have the sheet list them in order of street name and
then order of number
such as
1233 Lake St
1234 Lake St
1235 Lake St
etc.

so how do I split the columns automatically so that it will sort by the
name alphabetically and then the number numerically

please and thank you...
