You can use the Split method of the string. ex: Address.Split(" ".ToCharArray()) // Address is a property of type string.

Addresses are all so vastly different that you will never simply be able to split a string into the correct parts. Rather capture the address as separate fields, or at least have comma's to separate fields.

If your addresses seem to be captured in a similar format you could create a function in code that could solve the majority (but probably not all) rows.
