[mso] Re: Parse MS Word Addresses?

Or, you can select all the data in Word and then go to the Table menu and
Convert>Text to Table .... once it's in a table, then you can select the
whole table and copy/paste it into Excel

Supposing each person has the same number of data lines in the Word list,
one way to do this is to simply select the whole range of lines and paste it
in Excel as "Paste special -> Text". This will paste the data in each
Wordline in a separate line in the same Excel column.
Then you can select the cells pertaining to each person, copy them and right
click on another cell, select "Paste Special" and on the dialog box that
will open check "Transpose". This will paste each cell as a separate cell in
the same line. Then you select the next person's group, copy, click on the
cell below the first one which was transposed for the previous person, and
repeat the operation. 

If the number of names is too large to do this confortably by hand, then you
could paste the data in Excel and write a macro in VBA to do the
transposing.
