Default convert text to table in word 2007

I have a large number of addresses in a word document, used to address
envelopes and labels. I have built them up over the last couple of years,
but now have to search through them to find one I want, because they aren't
in alphabetical order. Each address is currently separated by a couple of
spaces, and are listed one after the other.
I have tried making a table using "text to table" but I can't determine how
to make a break after each address, in order to sort.
Any suggestions?
