Visual Form Builder Address format parsing

    So far, this has been a great plug-in.

    The one place I am stuck is with the Address Form Field. While the UI for the user separates the various sub-fields, the data appears to be stored all crammed together with no filed field delineators. This makes it hard to use this data for snail mailings (still popular with non-profits).

    How are other dealing with this?

    Is there someway to force the addition of a non-printable character or a little-used printable character as an address sub-field divider so I can at least write a macro to automate turning the data into a usable format after export?

    Examples:
    Little Red House|123 W. Park Ave.|Spokane, WA 99203|United States of America
    123 W. Park Ave||Spokane|WA|99203|United States of America
    Or some variant there of.

    PS – I tried searching for info on this problem before posting a comments, but couldn’t find anything. If you have a link to a solution that would work as well. Thanks.
