Default Paste Formatting

I have a situation where we paste information into excel (from a UNIX based
system) and the data automatically delineates into separate cells. The paste
formating option does not allow us to "turn off" this automatic formatting.

The strange thing is this is only on 1 person's computer! On every other
computer, the data copies into 1 column, and we must to the "text to columns"
function - this is what we want to do.

How can we get the copied text to paste into one column to do the text to
columns function to organize the data as we want?
