Learn how to import or export data from a Text file to convert a Text (.txt or .csv) file into an Excel (.xlsx) spreadsheet easily using this procedure.

Microsoft Excel has an import wizard, but if you structure the text correctly, you can bypass the wizard altogether.

You can convert OpenOffice.org text documents to Excel with the text import tool. Save the text document with the .txt file extension, open it in Excel and save it as an Excel spreadsheet.
