I copy data into Excel from a website on the Web.
The only place I can find the Text Import Wizard option is in the paste options box which is a drop down box that appears after I have pasted the data into a cell. The paste options box appears only after I have pasted and I have been unable to call it up via a macro since the position of the box changes. How can I call up the Text Import Wizard via keyboard or place it on a bar so it is in a static position. |

Why don't you record a macro while you do it once to see what you end
up with? Alternatively, you could consider using Data | Text-to-columns. Hope this helps.

I did try to do it via macro. Since the position of the box changes, I
cannot use the mouse. I need the data on one line, that is why I do not use text to columns. Also, I need to do other changes on that the Text Import wizard does. So, back to my question... how do I call up the Text Import Wizard or the PasteOptions via keyboard or have it on a bar.

The Text Import Wizard = DataText to columns
