    Question Need to Separate Names and Addresses

    Hi all!

    I need to create mailing labels with a list of data I've received. My lines have one, two, or three names. I tried to Convert Text to Columns, but there are just spaces separating the text.

    Here's an example from my list:

    Paul & Joan & Marjorie Roderick 75 E. Charles Street Long Branch, NJ 08005


    This is how my label should look:

    Paul & Joan & Marjorie Roderick
    75 E. Charles Street
    Long Branch, NJ 08005


    Any ideas/help is greatly appreciated!!!

    Rule 08: Cross-posting Without Telling Us

    Your post does not comply with Rule 8 of our Forum RULES. Do not cross-post your question on multiple forums without telling us about your threads on other forums.

    Post a link to any other forums where you have asked the same question. If you have fewer than 10 posts here, you will not be able to post a link, but you must still tell us where else you have asked the question.

    Cross-posting is when you post the same question in other forums on the web. The last thing you want to do is waste people's time working on an issue you have already resolved elsewhere. We prefer that you not cross-post at all, but if you do (and it's unlikely to go unnoticed), you MUST provide a link (copy the url from the address bar in your browser) to the cross-post.

    Expect cross-posted questions without a link to be closed and a message will be posted by the moderator explaining why. We are here to help so help us to help you!

    Read this to understand why we ask you to do this, and then please edit your first post to include links to any and all cross-posts in any other forums (not just this site).

    No further help to be offered, please, until the OP has complied with this request.
