Messy tab characters

Hi.

I've got a list of words from another application. Whilst the tabs are tidy and neat in that application, when I paste them into excel they get all messed up.

for example (imported file into excel)

hello

hej

hej

I

jag

car

bil

So the values are placed into many different columns. I just want them into to columns, like this:

hello

hej

I

jag

car

bil

Does anyone have a clue of how to fix my file?
I would deeply appreciate it!

Damn! Not even this site can show the indentations properly!
