Hello Dave,

I managed to create this by opening the TXT file in Word, converting the text into a 'table' selecting 'comma' for the separator, and copying/pasting the result into Excel

100009 5047.103523 979.802248 497.537994 TRE
100010 5042.865536 980.986387 497.56198 TRE
100011 5019.806592 981.348742 497.390278 TG1

Hope this is of some help.
I'll post step-by-step moves if you're not too sure what I'm suggesting.

MJ
