Per comments below, I'm editing my original posted question to more accurately reflect my problem.
This is for my job. In my work program, I download my data table to a csv file and it automatically opens the data in Notepad. I don't save the file in Notepad. (This process has to remain the same per my job. Saving the data is unnecessary and would take too much time as I have to do this same step hundreds of times a day.)
Once the data opens in Notepad, I copy all the data. I then need to paste the data directly into excel. The data is comprised of 66 different columns and includes headers. I need to parse the columns so that many of them are skipped, while most of the others are pasted as text. In the array below, i thought i laid that out correctly using the Array(1, 9), Array(4, 2) method, hoping Column 1 would be skipped and Column 4 would be pasted as text, etc...
When running this code though, the first column is skipped, but then all subsequent columns are pasted, not following any of the array setup i wrote in the code. I've researched questions on this site and many others. I can't figure what is wrong with my code to cause this issue.
Here is a link to the data I'm using (edited for anonymity of data): https://www.dropbox.com/s/2ujbpgm3zkvserx/Test_Data_Parsing.txt?dl=0
Here is the code I'm using:
