Default Excel formatting of text-- one cell needed

I want to paste txt or doc text into one cell. Instead it populates the
spreadsheet. A colleague who does not know English tried using CNTRL+X and
was able to put the pasted text into one cell but could not duplicate it. Any
ideas?

Sample paste:

-- I want to take this list
-- Or group of statements
-- Into one field in Excel

But I get

Cell

A1 -- I want to take this list
A2 -- Or group of statements
A§ -- Into one field in Excel

Thank you
