delimited copy and paste
When I import data into excel from a text file, it gives me the choice
of delimiting the data into columns any way I want. But when I copy text from a screen and paste it into excel I can't figure out how to delimit the columns the way I want. Can someone help please ? Thanks. |

Excel likes to remember the rules from the last parsing you did. But if your
data goes into a single column, you can select that column and do: Data|Text to columns The wizard will look very familiar.

Its a great help not to have to save the data to a text file before importing into excel.
