Default Text Columns Function

the data is fairly simple:


1234 abcd xyz
Name

I want the data piece "name" to be moved into the above row in its own cell.

1234 abcd xyz Name

When I bring the data in, I am using the "text to columns" function as it
all comes into column A only.

If you think a macro is the only way, can you instruct how to go about that?

To my opinion it will be very difficult or impossible a solution if the
without having the Data in front of us.
However, you may try to record a Macro of the Cutting/Pasting the data from
the 2nd. row, up to the 1st. row and Deleting the empty 2nd. row.
All this should be "nested" within some sort of loop.

The data I am bringing in to Excel comes in two rows for a single record. I
need to reformat it so that all of the data is on one line. As there are
several thousand records, I need to do find a way to automate this.

Any suggestions?
