Default Text to columns

When using Text to Columns in fixed width mode, is it possible to start with
all the break lines removed by default. It is so annoying having to go
through and delete the ones that Excel thinks you want each time? I am
using Excel 2000

Many thanks in advance

Geoff.

Simply no, it would be nice but not a feature. If you have the same each
time why not record a macro that would do the import for you?
