I had the same problem when I started using Tables and after I found the
TAB delimiter "trick" as per Hermann, it was obvious (20/20 Hind sight).
The Aha! moment came when using commas messed it up by putting them all in
1 column with the commas intact. I just assumed everybody  knew  and I was
a slow learner- nice to know I was not alone
