    Macro to open large text file made from bitmap

    I have a large text file that contains data arranged in the following order:

    0 <tab> 0 <tab> 85
    0 <tab> 1 <tab> 83
    0 <tab> 2 <tab> 79
    .
    .
    .
    639 <tab> 479 <tab> 25

    The data represents row, column, and white level of a grayscale 640x480 bitmap that I've analyzed using a program called "imagej". Obviously, I have problems just copying and pasting from the text file into Excel.

    What I'd like to do is put the numeric data into row/column form in a spreadsheet. I'm currently using Excel 2003, so I'm aware of the 256-column limitation, so I can knock the image down to 320x240.

    Can you provide a copy of the text file and an Excel mockup of your desired results?

    I can create a quick "Import" macro for you to accomplish that same task quickly.
