How to split an address block into two fields

I am importing data from a software that stores Address Lines as a "block" separated by a new line, rather than as separate fields. How can I separate the address lines into separate fields when I don't have a comma as a delimiter? 

Currently, when I import the "AddressBlock" field into QV, I only see the top line of the address line displayed, but if I export it into excel, I can see both lines displayed in a single cell, but on two separate lines just as they appear in the original software.

try something like this...

Load *,
subfield(AddressBlock,chr(10),1) as Adr_Block,
subfield(AddressBlock,chr(10),2) as Adr_Line1
From Table1;

Change the subfield positions (1,2) according to your data format.
