I’m not good with excel, my knowledge is very limited, but I’m stuck with a project where I have 3,077 rows. There are a few columns where I need to move around a few words or numbers. All I need right now is to know how to do it in one column, or if it’s even possible. I have a list of addresses and 90% of them have been entered incorrectly. Rather than go through each one one by one I’m hoping there’s something I can run to swap the word or number around. If need be I can create a new column.

Below is an example. The first two are correct, the next four are not. I need the second number to be after ROAD or after HWY. i.e. 6 ROAD 3066 or 1059 HWY 516. Thank you for your help in advance.

42 ROAD 3050
68 ROAD 3400
6 3066 ROAD
1059 516 HWY
986 516 HWY
33 3403 ROAD

    If I understand correctly, your task is as follows:

    • your have three columns
    • one of them is not a number
    • you want to have them in order number/text/number

    Your input cells are A1/B1/C1. Then create the following additional columns:

    • D1 = IF(ISNUMBER(A1);A1;B1)
    • E1 = IF(ISNUMBER(A1);IF(ISNUMBER(C1);B1;C1);A1)
    • F1 = IF(ISNUMBER(C1);C1;B1)

    Those are then the desired output columns.
