    How to copy and paste data into seperate columns?

    Okay, so, for example: I have "ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ" on copy and paste. How do I paste that into A-Z columns?

    At the moment, if I highlight A-Z columns it just copy and pastes it all into the A column. But I need it so that it has A in the A column, B in the B column, C in the C column, and so on to Z.

    Any ideas how I could do that?

    You can use text to columns - Fixed width option. But you will have to put a pointer in place for each alphabet which can be tedious.

    There should be formulae which can help you as well.

    Welcome to the forums

    Please place this in Column A (given cell containing text is A1)
    =MID($A$1,COLUMN(),1)
    and drag it across the columns, please tell me if this is what you are looking for.

    Hope it helps!
