Default paste data into a table

Hello,

I would like to ask a question about pasting data into a table (office
word 2003)

I have data in text format seperated by spaces, e.g.

data1 data2 data3

When I paste it into a table, it all goes into one cell.

How do I do it so each data bit goes into its own cell?

Thanks in advance..

Paste it into the document, then select it all, and from the Tables menu,
select Convert Text to Table and check the Other radio button and replace
whatever is in the box beside it with a space. Then click on OK.
