Default copying data from text file to excel sheet

turn on the macro recorder and then do file=OPen and select your file. go
through the text import wizard and select delimited and space as the
delimiter (or tab - whatever is appropriate).

Then, when the file is in, turn off the macro recorder.

This gives you the basic code you need.

If you want it in an existing sheet, then just use additional code like

Activesheet.UsedRange.copy Destination:= _
ThisWorkbook.worksheets(1).Range("A1")
ActiveWorkbook.Close Savechanges:=False

You can also modify the code to allow you to select a file by using

fName = Application.GetOpenfileName

then replacing the hard coded filename in the recorded code with fname
