10,000 more names...

All names are formated in this way. When I import the text using the wizard it sorts the heading from the text no probs. (I add the : into the criteria and it inserts the column.

WHat I would like to achieve is he follow
Name Address1 Town County Post Code Tele FAX
Fred Blogs The Street New Town Sussex AB1 2CD
Jan Blogs The Old Street Old Town Sussex DC2 1BA

hope this is enough to help
Hi, it helps sort of. The reason I asked for dummy data in Excel format was so I could see the exact layout. Just would have sped things along.

Is there a blank row (or rows) between ach person?
Is the layout consistent throughout? i.e. 7 rows do data and then a blank / blanks? Or could this vary through the data?
