What must you do to import data from a text file into a new worksheet?

To import data from a text file into a new worksheet effectively, utilizing the Get Data button in the Data Ribbon is essential. This functionality is designed to facilitate the process of bringing in data from various sources, including text files, which often have structured data that can be easily organized into a spreadsheet format.

The Get Data option provides a user-friendly interface that guides you through the steps necessary to locate and select your text file. It allows you to specify how the data should be parsed and which delimiters to use, enabling you to convert the text file into a usable format for analysis or further manipulation within your worksheet. This feature is particularly useful when dealing with different text formats such as CSV or TSV.

Other options such as using the Macro dialog or clicking on buttons in the Home Ribbon do not cater specifically to the needs of importing data from text files into new worksheets. The From CSV option is indeed related to the process of importing, but it’s a more specific case and does not cover all types of text files. Thus, selecting the Get Data button aligns closely with the overall objective of efficiently importing data into your spreadsheet.
