I search a lot of groups and only come up with a bunch of them.

I imported a text file that have customers name on it but customers
appear in the the same cell. So I have 5000+ cells on information all
in one column.
the data looks like this :
Last, First 111-222-333

Cellular..................111-222-333
Voice Mail..............111-222-333
Home....................111-222-333
Fax........................111-222-333

Is there a way to separate or parse all of this data into separate
field
that all
appear in one row?  So I would want it to look like the following:

Column B             Column C        Column D           Column E
Last First            111 29th Ave    San Francisco         CA

Column F      Column G
94121         email@email.com

Thank You.

There's no quick and easy push-button solution.  Because the conditions can
vary so widely from one download to another.  About all you can do is to go
through manually identifying the similar repeated conditions and then record
macros to deal with them one at a time......and at the end, maybe even having
to change a few by hand...........not much help, but that's the way I do
it......
