Default text parsing/table creation from single column data

Hi:
have problem: tab delimited text files, repeating blocks of text separated
by two tabs, which I need to convert to a table format. The text imports as a
single column, the data occurring in blocks of twenty-eight cells separated
by two blank cells. Need to parse, and transpose these blocks of cells to
create a table of twenty eight columns I can manipulate. I can do the
copy/transpose function from the toolbar for short files, but some of these
files will have hundreds of rows, not something I want to do by hand. Is
there aformulae/macro/template which will perform this function?
