lipster Posted May 6, 2009 Posted May 6, 2009 Hi Everyone, I have a longggg list of words in excel, 10,000 columns long. I need to copy/drag each word into a single text box/field in an external application and do that 10,000 times. Laborious! Is there a way to simulate the TAB character between each word within excel (E.g. word1<TAB>word2<TAB>word3<TAB>) all in one cell of course, so that if I was to drag/copy this cell from excel and then drop/paste it into the first text box of the external application, the first box would contain word1, the second box word2 etc... word1 word2 word3 Thanks in Advance, Lipster
