vba - Road Type Abbreviation Replacement in Excel -


i have large spreadsheet in excel has column of 6000+ addresses. want convert of road type abbreviations typed out types.

examples: rd -> road or st. -> street.

an issue i've encountered addresses contain sequence of letters trying replace , find , replace feature ends replacing parts of names of streets in addition replacing abbreviations.

for example: 1123 stupid state st replaced 1123 streetupid streetate street

is there way write code change abbreviations while preserving rest of address?

note: of addresses not follow same format. abbreviations fall in random places within cell--that abbreviations not appear @ end of cell value.

this needs work road type abbreviations.

thanks ton help.

i see tried find , replace, guessing did not check "match whole word" advanced option. find , replace again, click advanced button, , check "match whole word" checkbox. long abbreviations separated space street name, should replace abbreviation without touching street name.
