To make this go a little smoother....Replace the space between Final
and Date with an underscore, then:

Select the column of data
Data|Text-to-Columns
Check: Delimited....Click the [Next] button
Delimiter: Space
Click the [Finish] button

Does that help?

Regards,
Ron

From Excel, File/ Open/ files of type "text", then select your txt file, and
then select delimited with space as the delimiter.

dear Ron Coderre, David Biddulph
Thanks for the reply.

but .. I need to open the notepad and do the split by writng an
macro..

PLS REPLY since the problem is , my manager is opening the files in
excel and on a click of a button , the data should be splitted.

and so on...

the record in column A. should be spliteed if it is date and othewise
the data shoulld not be splittted.
