Excel All Data in One Cell

If all data is appearing in a single cell in Excel when you open a CSV file, here’s how to fix it:

Solution 1: Use "Text to Columns"

1. Select the column with all the data.

2. Go to Data → Text to Columns.

3. Choose Delimited → Click Next.

4. Select the correct delimiter (e.g., Comma, Semicolon, or Tab).

5. Click Finish.

Solution 2: Change Regional Settings

If the data separator is incorrect, Excel may not split data properly.

1. Open Control Panel → Region Settings.

2. Check the List separator (e.g., change from comma (,) to semicolon (;) if needed).

3. Reopen the file in Excel.
