Importing data into Excel

A

\(a\)

Hi

I have a text file called a.txt. I would like to import it into excel with
the headings domain, ip address, owner, administrative contact, technical
contact, name servers, additional data.

I'm not sure how I would go about doing that or if it is even possible. If
someone knows, would you be able to assist me please.

Below is what I would like the final excel spreadsheet to look like as well
as the contents of the file I would like to import (a.txt). I haven't
filled out the final excel spreadsheet, but all the columns would be filled
out with the data from a.txt.

Thank you.

Yes, entries that have multiple lines would go into a single cell.

I will take a look at the reference you listed below.
