    RE: convert a .dat file opened in Word to excel?

    Yes I am aware of the import wizard process - I guess I didn't ask the right
    question. Once it is imported into excel - it doesn't line up in the columns
    - is there a quick way to fix this or is it cut and paste?

    Try the Text to columns wizard in the data menu, it will split the data into
    columns based on any delimiter, comma, space etc.
