Default Copy/paste from other application without delimiting it?

What is the de-limiter Excel uses?

Excel will store the DataText to Columns settings if you have used that at
some time.

Check to see what the settings are and clear de-limiters such as space or
comma or other(if set).

Save the workbook then try your copy/paste.

Or paste into the formula bar as has been suggested by dlw.
