When copying data from Forum threads, data is pasted into only one column

.. I got the same result.
I'm not sure you did because for me Edge worked perfectly, just copying the table & pasting. You seem to be saying you are still having a problem with Edge.
 
That's correct. I am still having the problem with Edge but not with Internet Explorer or Chrome.

I managed to have a look at your link. Thank you. Unfortunately, Excel doesn't have those options. The site also says: "By default, when you paste text copied from elsewhere into Word, you automatically get all the formatting with it." I assume the default for Excel is the same so the row/column format should be copied/pasted but it's not.

I just recalled that at one time I was having a problem copying and pasting from this web site (not any others) and was able to cure it by listing the site in the 'Compatibility View' list which is a 'Settings' option for the internet. I don't know if that can solve your browser issue though, since it apparently is the same with all web sites, not just one.

Thank you for that suggestion. Unfortunately, it happens with all web sites.

Yeah, I just threw that in because it is somewhat related and might help someone else who is having browser problems with a specific site.
Regards, JLG
