Default Extracting Data

What would be the formula to separate the street portion then, so I can have
both in separate boxes, this strips it & puts the numbers in a new field, but
the original field still has the number & street name & not just street name.


Assuming that he Number portion of the address is followed by a space, the
following function will do the trick. Change cell A1 accordingly.:

=LEFT(A1,FIND(" ",A1,1)-1)
