Parsing formatted data
If the delimiter is the alt-enter (like you use when you force a new line in a
cell), you can try this:
Select the single column range to parse.
Data|Text to columns (xl2003 menus)
delimited
and check other
Use ctrl-j (hold the control key when you hit lower case j)
And finish up.
Does it work?

I received a spreadsheet with the address already pre-formatted for a label

has a next line/carriage return at the end of each line. How do I do a parse
when the delimiter is several carriage returns within a single cell?
