I want to move the address to the column next to the name and the phone number in the next column so I can have a database.Any suggestions please.
Thanks.

Try this with a COPY of your sheet

Sub Addrs()
Dim Area As Range
For Each Area In Columns("A").SpecialCells(xlCellTypeConstants).Areas
    Area(1).Offset(, 1).Resize(, Area.Rows.Count).Value = Application.Transpose(Area)
Next Area
Columns("A").Delete
Columns("B").SpecialCells(xlCellTypeBlanks).EntireRow.Delete
End Sub

the formatting in your post changed

 

[Oeldere]

c1=INDIRECT("A"&((ROW()-1)*4)+Column()-2) and drag to d1 and e1

Then drag c1:e1 down till you get 0 as result (then there are no more names in column A).
