Trying to break up data in the label format to fields, for easy entry into table
Hello!
Say: If I have the following data in a word document Ms. Johanna Sullivan Sylvan Technology Center 3810 Valley Center Dr., Suite 904 San Diego, CA 92130 858-481-3640 Ms. Sara Taylor Texas Instruments 6412 Hwy 75 S., m/s 816 Sherman, TX 75091 903-868-6168 s-tylor1@ti,com Timothy M. Brown Ballotti Learning Center Suffolk University 41 Temple Street Boston, MA 02114 617-573-8235 is there any way I could break the data into fields say F_name, L_name, .......... Phone, e-mail; and then create a database with those fields? Like I already tried to work with the mail merge helper in the word,to create a new data source, but I don't have that specific button,(in the mail merge toolbar). Will be great if you could help me with this, or even if some one could write to me how to download that particular button. thanks, Visali. |
