Hi,
I have imported a text file and am trying to break out this information into a format I can import into a database. I basically have addresses that can be either 3, 4, or 5 lines long. For example, here are 2 records: ACREE JEFFREY D & REBA D 15057 LOCUST POINT KING GEORGE VA 22485 ACREE PEARL (LIFE); ACREE DAV JOHNNY; JUDITH & GRIFFIN LINDA C/O JUDITH RAE ACREE 175-D ELK CREEK ROAD MOUNT CLARE WV 26408 I need to break out the names, address, city, state, and zip. I am assuming because of the make up of the file, I probably need to work backwards and fill in the zip first and work my way to the name to ensure the same type of data, ie State, goes into the same column. My thoughts were to use transpose to send each line to a new column and then split the cells to break out the city, state and zip, although they may be a problem with 2 named towns like those shown above. I was hoping for suggestions on the best way to do this before I start torturing myself. :) Thanks, Kim |
