Default Scanned files into Excel?


I have a lot of *printed *accounting spreadsheets that I need converted
into Excel files. I have been able to scan them as TIFF and recognize
it as text using OCR, but there are so many files, it would be
extremely tedious to just keep copying and pasting each individual
item. Copying the entire file at the same time and pasting into excel
yields a jumbled mess. This being an accounting spreadsheet means that
there are not nice, clean columns with which to work, but slightly
offset columns due to credit/debit accounts.

Do you guys have any suggestions for a good program that can convert
scanned files into excel, while keeping decent formatting? Thanks.
