Default Help with OLC download Excel File

I am trying to download the OLC info for our club in Excel format. This I
can do successfully. However, while the file is named ".XLS" it appears to
be a delimited text file. When I load it into Excel, for every flight, I
get 3 lines in the Excel Spreadsheet. The first line goes to the end of the
given name, the next is the surname, and the third is the rest of the
record.

While I can fix all of this by hand, I'd rather not. Looking at the file
with Notepad, it appears the culprit are 2 CR embedded in the name field,
with tabs between the items in the name field.

Anybody have a way of easily loading the file provide by the OLC into Excel?

Thanks,
John
