    My macro is copying data in error

    I am trying to create a macro to use the data "Text to column" function to convert a column of data to text. (Just so you understand how I'm creating the macro - I highlight the column (A) and hit ALT DEWNNTF)

    A B C D
    INV USER MNO SCRNO
    9242852 38026 6966 A2046443
    9243250 06046 6948 BS047985

    9243280 04218 2552 BU122874
    9243260 02031 1223 A0232935

    What ends up happening after I record the macro (say on column A) and try it on another column (say B) is that the data from column B is copied to column A. If I do column C, then A has the data of column C.

    A B C D
    USER USER MNO SCRNO
    38026 38026 6966 A2046443

    04218 04218 2552 BU122874
    02031 02031 1223 A0232935

    I don't know if it's the way I'm creating the macro, but I'm not sure why it's copying the infomation and not sure how to create the mcro correctly to do what I want.

    Can anyone help?
