Default How do I import a plain text file into a word worksheet?

If the text file is delimited into records using a particular character -
see http://www.gmayor.com/convert_labels...mail_merge.htm
and jump in where your text file matches the illustrations.

If not, then explain exactly what you have and what you want to do with it.

And "worksheets" are an Excel thing rather than a Word thing.
