Is there any way that I can import a text file and split the data into three columns without having to go through 65000 lines of text.
It is basically a print off of a directory structure. I have a very large text file that lists the files in folders for each of hundreds of users. I need to divide the information up into three columns so that the below data:
BOB\Songs
2003-07-15 12:10 PM 1,474,564 blue.mp3
2003-07-15 12:09 PM 858,204 orange.mp3
2003-07-15 12:10 PM 1,665,028 yellow.mp3

2003-07-15 12:09 PM 331,005 joker.mp3
BOB\files
2005-08-23 03:01 PM 917,504 writing.doc
ends up looking like this:
BOB \songs 1,474,564 blue.mp3
BOB \songs 858,204 orange.mp3
BOB \songs 1,665,028 yellow.mp3
BOB \songs\happy 917,504 jolly.mp3
BOB \songs\happy 331,005 joker.mp3

I easily imported the file into Excel, but it is still all in a column. Any advice would be appreciated.
