Mailing addresses from .doc or .txt to Excel
 

I am trying to import into Excel a list of street mailing addresses I
have as a Word doc. The data is in the following format:

1.A & F Brokerage Company
370 Convention Way
Redwood City CA 94063 Phn: (650) 216-2360
Fax: (650) 364-5100 Ferdows, Sam
2. A & M Realty, Inc.
135 Summerhill Lane
Woodside CA 94062 Phn: (650) 368-2104
Fax: (650) 368-4720 Freedland, Maria
3. A Real Estate Advisor
3521 Winway
San Mateo CA 94403 Phn: (650) 349-1369 Magyary, Ilona
4. A2S Smart Buyers & Sellers
210 Industrial Rd Suite 210
San Carlos CA 94070 Phn: (650) 592-7355
Fax: (650) 592-7350 O'Donnell, Greg

To add an additional hitch, not every address is 4 lines. Some don't
have the Fax number.

I am trying to create a spreadsheet with the typical column headings:
Name, address, City, etc,etc.
Any ideas?
