You want to import data, where from? Which way?

Suggestion #1 -
If you have Microsoft Access, import the data into that program instead.
You can run simple queries from Access to extract subsets of data that WILL
fit on a single worksheet tab

Suggestion #2 -
Open the file in Notepad. Copy half the data (or one-third of the data) and
paste it into a new Notepad window and save that as a new file. Repeat the
process until you've created new, smaller files, each of which will fit on a
single wrksheet tab

Suggestion #3 -
Do a Google search for VBA solutions that handle importing large text files
into multiple worksheet tabs
