Win XP Pro, Office 2003
I have received a text (txt) file with instructions to 'convert this to
excel'.
Each of the 765 lines of the text file is 315 characters long and consists
of data about certain insurance policies.
I have counted the characters as follows (applies to all lines):
Policy number = Characters 1 to 15
Title = Characters 17 to 31
Last Name = Characters 32 to 70
and so on.
I have copied and pasted the data into excel and now have a 'A1' (Down to
A765) cell with 315 characters in it, some text, some numbers. There are now
765 rows in the file.
How do I extract (to a new worksheet, in the same workbook)
Characters 1 to 15 to A1
Characters 17 to 31 to B1
Characters 32 to 70 to C1
and so on?
Thanks in advance.
