Splitting by column or row uses the rowdelimiter and columndelimiter
properties, which are cr and tab by default, but you can change them. In
your example you wouldn't need to.
But splitting by column won't give what you want, I don't think. If I
remember right it will give a numbered array with each element being the
contents of a column.

This morning it seemed natural enough to me to take this data:
ID Name Email
101 Richard [email protected]
...and turn that into an array where the first line determines the key
names and the second line consists of the values using this:
split tData by column with cr and tab
I found that when splitting by column the "with" clause throws an error.
Such cases are for data so small that I don't mind writing a loop to
create the array. But it seems common enough that I would imagine
others have tried this and met with similar disappointment that it's not
already built in.
Or is it? Is there some other syntax I might try to do that?
