Thank you for your response,

Hello
If the addresses are always presented as city-comma-address-comma-number
With an address in A1 in B1 put the formula:
=RIGHT(A1;MATCH(",";MID(A1;LEN(A1)-ROW($1:$255);1);0)) &SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(A1;RIGHT(A1;MATCH(",";MID(A1;LEN(A1)-ROW($1:$255);1);0));"");LEFT(A1;FIND(",";A1)-1);"")&" "&LEFT(A1;FIND(",";A1)-1)
Note, array formula to be validated by CTRL+SHIFT+Enter (the formula then automatically gets enclosed in { } )
Then drag down to the bottom of the column (double click on the black square in the bottom right of B1)
Best regards
Via
