I have a list of addresses that are all in column A that I need to transform
into rows to export into ACT.

I am a total newbie to macros and VB.

The addresses are all seperated by a cell with the number 100. An example
of the list follows. There are about 350 addresses.

Thanks!

It's usually pretty difficult to parse this kind of stuff into the correct
columns.

I tried to dump the numeric entries (phone number???) to column A.
The email address to column B
the address with zip code to column C

You can rearrange those columns when you're cleaning the data.

ps. If you have multiple phone numbers in any group (or multiple email accounts
in any group), then only the last will be kept.

Option Explicit
Sub testme()
Dim CurWks As Worksheet
Dim NewWks As Worksheet
Dim oRow As Long
Dim oCol As Long
Dim FirstRow As Long
Dim LastRow As Long
Dim iRow As Long
Dim myVal As Variant

Set CurWks = ActiveSheet
Set NewWks = Worksheets.Add

oRow = 1
With CurWks
FirstRow = 1
LastRow = .Cells(.Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row

For iRow = FirstRow To LastRow
myVal = .Cells(iRow, "A").Value
If myVal = 100 Then
oRow = oRow + 1
oCol = 4
ElseIf IsNumeric(Application.Substitute(myVal, " ", "")) Then
'phone number
oCol = 1
ElseIf LCase(myVal) Like "*@*" Then
'email address
oCol = 2
ElseIf IsNumeric(Trim(Right(myVal, 5))) Then
'zip code??
oCol = 3
Else
oCol = oCol + 1
End If
NewWks.Cells(oRow, oCol).Value = .Cells(iRow, "A").Value
Next iRow
End With
End Sub
