    Large Data Base With Apt # in Street Name

    Using Windows 10 and Excel 2016.

    Large data base that I have to clean up and rid the street name of the Aplt # after the street name, and in some cases, there is an Apt# right after the Street Number. See attached.

    Not elegant, but this works (at least for your small sample)

    =TRIM(LEFT(SUBSTITUTE(A2,"# ","#"),SEARCH("#",SUBSTITUTE(A2,"# ","#"))-1)&MID(MID(SUBSTITUTE(A2,"# ","#"),SEARCH("#",SUBSTITUTE(A2,"# ","#")),255),SEARCH(" ",MID(SUBSTITUTE(A2,"# ","#"),SEARCH("#",SUBSTITUTE(A2,"# ","#")),255)),255))

    This is a bit neater:

    =TRIM(LEFT(A2,SEARCH("#",A2)-1)&" "&MID(SUBSTITUTE(TRIM(SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(A2,"# ","#"),LEFT(A2,SEARCH("#",A2)-1),""))&" "," ",REPT(" ",100)),100,100))

    You're welcome.
