    Automatically/fast insert 5 blank rows after between rows of data in large data file

    Does anybody know how to automatically insert 5 blank rows between each row of data? I have 68 data files and each containing at least 320 rows, so it's not really an option to manually insert them.

    I have to copy/paste some data in between, but it has to be aligned so I can sort/filter later on.

    What do I do with this script? Copy paste into command prompt? I'm sorry, total noob here.
