I need to clean up the addresses in our database and I want to use the USPS address abbreviation matrix to help accomplish this.
There are two scenarios.
1. I need in a new cell using the USPS matrix (a sample of the options is below) replace the word matches. Street would become ST.
2. The second issue is I have a lot of addresses with apartment numbers or unit numbers but I need to pull those out. Apartment is always defined in the address as APT. Unit is always defined as Unit. I just need to pull these away from the address.
Make sense?
Any help is appreciated.
