Hello
I am trying to create a template for reading a vast amount of hexadecimal data collected by a data logger on my test equipment at work.
Usually I would split the data in to the correct column length (in notepad) then copy, paste to excel, followed by text to columns function. Once in my spreadsheet the formulas, to the right of the collected data, decipher in hexadecimal data etc.
However the data logger can be running for weeks and manually sorting the text file before importing the data to Excel would be a mammoth task so I want to try automate the population of columns and rows.
So is it possible to create a template where you can paste a long string of information (as per the .txt image below) and it auto populates in a spread sheet?
For example: the copied data needs to have a separate column whenever there is a “space” (which I can do with text to columns) and after 21 columns it needs to start a new row (this is where I get stuck). The below image is how I require the data to be sorted. Columns A-U then a new row is started.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
