If your addresses are in Col A starting in A1
then type the following in B1 and copy down =LEFT(A1,FIND(",",A1)-1) This will remove everything from the first comma to the end... Once you get it right you may copy col B and PASTE SPECIAL-VALUES where you want them. "~barney" wrote: Have a spreadsheet of names and addresses. Some address in the column have "city, state zip".
