Default Excel - Mailing List

I have about 2000 names and addresses in Column A in block form. I would like
to have the option to separate the name from the address Example: move
address to column B so I can mail merge. Any suggestions would be helpful.
Thank you.

blakem,

Below is a previous post that Gord Dibben solved. It sounds like the same
thing:







Are these data consistent?

i.e. 3 rows per address

If so, enter this in B2 and copy across to D2 then select B2:D2 and
drag/copy
down until you get zeros.

=INDEX($A:$A,(ROWS($1:1)-1)*3+COLUMNS($A:B))

When happy, select columns B:D and copypaste specialvaluesokesc.

Delete Column A

I have a list of names and addresses that are in rows. Does anyone know of
way to move the address and city state zip to columns so that I can do a
mail
merge and print labels. I know I could cut & paste but that would take a
long time.

Example
Name1
Address 1
City state zip1
Name2
Address 2
City state zip2

if name1 is in a2
I would like for address 1 to go to B2 and city state to go to c2
