Breaking address field

I have a column of addresses that may or may not end in an apartment number, suite number, or unit number. I need to break that field into 2 fields one with the address and the second column that extracts the apartment, suite, or unit #. What would be the best approach to accomplish this?


Example: Current data in column 1 and need to break out so it looks like columns 2 & 3


I will attach a file as this did not come through correctly.

Edit by Luke M: backticks added to format data properly

Code:
Current	                         Address1	        Address2
1 Bloomingdale Place Unit 310	1 Bloomingdale Place	Unit 310
1361 S Madlock Ct	        1361 S Madlock Ct
8241 E. Chippewa Trail	        8241 E. Chippewa Trail
1018 S Harvey Ave	        1018 S Harvey Ave
4309 N Ashland Ave Apt A	4309 N Ashland Ave	Apt A
121 Lindenwood #1006	        121 Lindenwood	#1006

This should get you started in the right direction. Of course it can be as simple or complicated as you want to make it.

Nick! You da man!


This is genius...I thought I was going to have to use text to columns and then reassemble the fields. A tedious process.


Thanks again for taking the time to develop this slick solution.
