Downloading Text File of Survey Data into MINITAB

The easiest way is to simply left-click on surveyf02.txt . The survey data will show up on the screen. Highlight all of it by typing "Ctrl a" simultaneously and copy it all by typing "Ctrl c" simultaneously. Then start up MINITAB, and right below the cell C1 (above row 1) paste the data by typing "ctrl v" simultaneously. Click OK on the message about delimiters and the data should be there. Caution! The data may not transfer correctly if there are missing entries or entries that are too long for a given column. Missing data must be represented in the original file with a "*".
