changing textlines in Word to data fields in Excel
I bought the town's tax database for mailings ( real estate) It is in
Word and appears to be a mail merge...they weren't much help for how they deal with it I need to get it into my ACT database via a *txt file from Excel Most of the records in the Word file are 5 lines some are 6 ... I need each line and in some cases parts of the lines broken down into individual fields I went to Grahmn Mayors section ( via Google newsgroup which is where I found this group but frankly despite my general knowledge I do not have time to get this done...there are about 435 page with about 5 to 6 records on each page Some of the records start on one page and are finished on the next. I am starting up a new real estate business in the White Mts of NH... can anyone offer a solution.. maybe tell tell me how much this might cost r.. to "make it happen" I tried macros in Excel...all I end up is the debug screen I HAVE A SAMPLE OF THE WORD DOC if you need it Greg Nash |
