I want to convert entire column to the text delimited.
Tried this code:



y.Sheets("csv").Range("A:A").NumberFormat = "@"


But with this code I get the result like in the picture.



 result



However, I want to get the result like this :
Should be



As you see I am unable to make the vba code for the last step in the Text to Columns Menu where we choose "Text" there.



I have also tried this code :



'Dim myRange As Range
'Set myRange = y.Sheets("csv").Range("A1:A20") ' you may need to qualify the range with sheet name, etc.

' myRange.TextToColumns Destination:=myRange, DataType:=xlDelimited, _
'TextQualifier:=xlDoubleQuote, ConsecutiveDelimiter:=False, Tab:=True, _
'Semicolon:=False, Comma:=False, Space:=True, Other:=True, OtherChar:="-"


But here also I am unable to control last step (where I can choose Text). Any help would be highly appreciated.

    According to docs.microsoft.com/en-us/office/vba/api/…, you can provide column data types as an array of two-element arrays, so try passing something like FieldInfo:=array(array(1, xlTextFormat)). Alternatively, it might be easier to apply @ number formatting to column A after the column has been split.
