Default notepad to excel spreadsheet

Hi Guys,

I got a notepad file with 100s of lines of numbers that look like this
2004, 3, 23, 9, 43, 24

I need to transfer these into an excel spread sheet, but how do i mak
excel recognize each column as been seperated by a comma, e.g.
2004 in col a
3 in col b
23 in col c
etc.

Thanks in advance,
Cathal

Rename the .txt file to .csv
That stands for comma separated values.
Excel should open it up fine.
