For example: '12 Roosevelt Ave.' Some function that will grab the '12' and put it in another cell, with the original cell left over with just 'Roosevelt Ave.' I don't know how easy/hard this would be but any help would be appreciated. TIA, Mike -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------ Some important links for excel users: 1.
