JROD,

It sounds as if the record delimiter isn't what Excel expects. What do you
see when you open the file with a program like NotePad?

I am trying to import a text file with 50,000 data entries into a worksheet
but the importing function seems to allow only extraction to a single row
which limits the data extraction to 256 data entries. Is there a way to
import with the data formatted to a single column to allow the use of the
64K
rows available to parse the data?
