question regarding splitting tables

P

Another question. I would like to convert a table from a
database. When I import this into word I get the
information that should be on one row in two columns on
one row in one column (one field). Is there any way to
correct this???

I'm sorry, I find it hard to explain in words sometimes :)

I was given a table, however it's in word format e.g.

number
 
S

When you convert text to table, specify two columns, with | as the "Other"
character under "Separate text at."
