    Text to columns

    I have downloaded address list from web, i've been able to parse everything
    except the physical addr and the city. the city seems to be separated by two
    blank spaces as shown. It's not fixed length and the space delimiter does
    not seem to work.

    1911 - 290th Street Greenfield
    6212 N 131st St Omaha
    2773 290th St Orient
    2956 North View Road Dorchester
    Any ideas?
    Thanks

    RE: Text to columns

    There may be HTML non-breaking spaces in the text.
    Try this:

    On the Step 2 of the Text-to-Columns
    Check: Other
    in the character box: hold down the [alt] key, type 0160, release the [alt]
    key
    Continue with the Text-to-Columns

    Does that help?
