Importing a Spreadsheet
 
Hello,

I've got a spreadsheet setup in Yahoo to track a portfolio of stocks. In
the past I was able to simply cut and paste the spreadsheet to Excel. All
the data transferred neatly to an Excel page. Now I don't seem to be able
to. When I do this now, all the data resides in a single cell. Can someone
help me with this? There is a download feature in Yahoo but it doesn't
transfer all the data properly.

Thank you, DG

What may work is pasting to Word, where it may end up as a table, then copy
& paste from Word to Excel.

Hi...thanks for the reply...but...didn't work. Copied to Word, got a
run-together text document, then copied to Excel. Same result.
