HI

I have the text in the notepad imported from a file.

DATE FINAL DATE NAME AMT1 AMT2 VALUE

3/31/2003 6/02/2003 THOMAS 4.950 15.00 693.00
3/31/2003 6/02/2003 HARI 7.220 15.00 693.00
3/31/2003 6/02/2003 THOMAS 4.950 15.00 693.00

and so on...

Now from the notepad , i had pasted in the excel column A.
this shows the record in column A.

how can i paste the fields each on a column.

From Excel, File/ Open/ files of type "text", then select your txt file, and
then select delimited with space as the delimiter.
