I am trying to make a Macro that searches addresses in a worksheet and
replaces "street" abbreviations with fully spelled out words. I have the
general idea of how to make the macro, but I have a couple of selective
replacements that I don't know how to handle
For example, I need to be able to replace "Dr" in "123 Monroe Dr", with
"Drive" to make "123 Monroe Drive". But I need to make sure that "Dr." in
"Dr. Bill Excel doesn't get replaced and make "Drive. Bill Excel".
The address column will be in different columns depending on which report is
being run. And there is no space or other character after "Dr" in the
address.
If I get this figured out, I should be able to solve my other problems. Any
ideas?
