How to split up clipboard/variable into multiple variables?

Questions & Suggestions
2

Given those requirements, I've developed the below Macro.
Note the following:

  1. I revised your post to put your source data into a Code Block, so that ALL characters are properly maintained.
    • In the future, please put ALL source data in a Code Block, and also ALL results in a Code Block.
  2. This is the data I used.
  3. I noticed you have a lot of spaces in your source text. I think I have properly accounted for one or more spaces or tabs using the \h RegEx metacharacter.
  4. I have assumed that your statement "might be missing" to mean that the entire lines containing either the Phone or Website would be missing. If this is incorrect, then the RegEx will need adjusting.
  5. RegEx:
    (?mi)Address\h+(\w+)\h+(\w+)\n\h*(\d+ \w+) (\w+) (\w+)\n(?:Phone\h+(.+)\n)?(?:Website\h+(.+)\n)?lat\. long\.\h+(.+)
    .
    For RegEx details, explanation, and test, see:

Please let us know if this works for you, or you have further issues or questions.
