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

Highlight the data then click on Data | Text-to-columns. This will
take you through 3 steps, where you can specify the delimiter, how to
treat each field of data, where to place the data once parsed etc.

Hope this helps.

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?
