I guess it depends on how many lines excel guesses vs how many checkboxes I have
to uncheck.

(I guess I like the delimited since it's easier to explain over the phone!)

Or the OP could use delimited and uncheck all the delimiters.

It's a pain true, but you can get round it by simply doing another text to
columns on any bit of data, fixed width and no breaks. Awkward, annoying yes,
but impossible no.

Once I use Text to Columns in a spreadsheet, it automaticly does it to
everything I copy. There is no way to turn it off. "Help" does not have
anything even vaguely related to Text to Columns. I have never found
anything in Help that ever helped me solve a problem I was having with a
Microsoft product. I don't think a Microsoft employee will ever see this
email and if they did they wouldn't care if this problem was ever fixed.
