Default In Excel, how do I seperate data that is imported into one column

YOu could click on DATA in the menu, select IMPORT EXTERNAL DATA and select
new WEB QUERY to bring the data into a workbook.

If you prefer the copy & paste method you can select your copied text, click
DATA on the menu and select TEXT TO COLUMNS to parse the data.

When going online to import financial data I do a copy of all the data and
then a "Paste Special" "Text" and all the data comes in in one column and
seems de-limited by a space or tab. How do I sort so that data is in seperate
columns?
